A beach day turned into a scene straight out of a horror movie for a lifeguard after she was impaled by an umbrella.

The incident occurred Wednesday morning at Asbury Park’s 3rd Avenue Beach, where emergency personnel were summoned to the Jersey Shore due to reports of a young woman being trapped by a beach umbrella.

Other lifeguards discovered the young woman on the ground near the lifeguard stand with an umbrella stake penetrating her left shoulder and protruding from the back of her arm by about a foot, Asbury Park Fire Chief Kevin Keddy informed Fox News Digital.

Keddy said first responders cut the umbrella stake off to make it easier to transport the victim to a hospital.

The commission stated that beach umbrellas that have been sent airborne by wind gusts have “killed people and caused many serious injuries.” 

The commission also provided safety recommendations for consumers, such as ensuring umbrellas are securely anchored and staying vigilant for strong wind gusts.

Fox News Digital reached out to the Asbury Park Beach office for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
