Lifeguard impaled by umbrella at Jersey Shore in gruesome scene

A female lifeguard was impaled so deeply with a beach umbrella at the Jersey Shore that it had to be cut into smaller pieces with a saw before she could be taken to the hospital, officials said.

Fellow lifeguards, EMS fellow and others responded to a call of a young woman who had been impaled with a roughly 6-foot-long umbrella around 9:30 a.m. Wednesday at Asbury Park’s 3rd Avenue Beach, fire officials said.

“The umbrella went underneath her left shoulder and out the back,” Asbury Park Fire Chief Kevin Keddy told The Post.

“It was protruding by about a foot,” he added about the grisly injury.

Responders had to use a bandsaw to cut off the stake in order to fit the woman into an ambulance.

The victim, who was conscious and alert throughout the incident, was rushed to Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune, Keddy said.
