A Canadian tourist on holiday lost her hands when she tried to take a picture with a six-foot shark at a beach in Turks and Caicos.

A Virginia man who was arrested in the Turks and Caicos Islands for unknowingly carrying a bag that contained ammunition was sentenced to time served and given a $9,000 fine.

Another U.S. tourist was arrested at Turks and Caicos’ Hamilton Airport for allegedly having ammunition in her luggage on Monday.

In 2023, the U.S. Embassy in the Bahamas warned Americans that taking ammo into Turks and Caicos carried a “custodial sentence of 12 years.”
