There is a Great White Shark lurking in the waters off the Jersey Shore. The shark was caught, tagged with an electronic tracker and released in 2012 in Cape Cod. Since then, the shark, named Mary Lee after the mother of OCEARCH expedition leader Chris Fischer, has been tracked swimming nearly 20,000 miles out to the middle of the Atlantic, to Bermuda, near Delaware and Maryland. Mary Lee the Great White Shark pinged the tracker this week about 10 miles off the coast of Cape May, Avalon and Sea Isle. This morning the shark was 5 miles off the Brigantine.

Philadelphia police are looking for a woman accused of installing a card-skimming device on a Center City ATM. Police discovered the device attached to an ATM at 1800 John F. Kennedy Blvd. Investigators were able to obtain images showing an unidentified woman placing tape over a surveillance camera and installing the device on the ATM several times, beginning Sunday. The photos are on iRadioPhilly.com. Anyone with information on the woman's whereabouts is asked to contact the Major Crimes Unit.

The woman behind the wheel of a SEPTA bus that nearly hit a freight train in South Philly on Tuesday lost control when she fell out of her seat. She was not wearing her seat belt, a violation of SEPTA guidelines. The crash happened not long after the Route 29 bus left Pier 70 in South Philly. A stopped CSX train was blocking the bus, so the driver tried to maneuver around it. As she made a turn, the driver, a 10-year employee of SEPTA, apparently cut it too closely, causing her to lose her balance and fall from her seat and nearly steering the bus onto the train tracks.
