Long Island shores are being patrolled by drones one day after a shark bit a lifeguard over the weekend at Smith Point Beach.

Officials said they're using state-of-the-art equipment to watch for any more sharks, CBS2's Thalia Perez reported Monday.

It was a sunny, picture-perfect day at the beach. Twelve-year-old Aiden Rivera said he returned Monday to bodysurf after Sunday's shark attack derailed his plans.
