OLD ORCHARD BEACH, Maine — Officials have yet to verify a woman's reported sighting of a shark at Old Orchard Beach Friday afternoon.

The reported sighting comes days after a great white shark sighting in Scarborough last Monday .

Hearing this, two beachgoers, Chip Plucker and Tom Stokes, then looked for the shark with binoculars. They reportedly spotted a shark fin in the waters, and said it appeared as if it was following something in circles.

Plucker and Stokes reported the sighting to Old Orchard fire and police departments.

Officers set up a drone to scan the waters. But according to Lance Timberlake, lieutenant of the Old Orchard Beach lifeguards, the drone did not pick up on any sharks.

Timberlake said reports of sightings also typically increase after confirmed sightings.
