The Shark Arm Murder

The Shark Arm Murder

In April 1935, a tiger shark at Sydney’s Coogee Aquarium regurgitated a human arm, setting in motion one of Australia’s most bizarre crimes. The case quickly grew into a tangled investigation, involving a crime underworld, a high-speed chase and the murder of a key witness. The story often feels stranger than fiction, yet it endures as a landmark case in Sydney’s history.
