'They were out for an ordinary day at the beach. Once the rain started they got ready to leave, and out of nowhere, they were struck.'
A lightning strike on a New York City beach sent six people to an area hospital on Thursday. Three among the injured were children.
The six victims were all sitting on the sand when a fast-moving storm came in, rain started, and lightning struck the beach at 5:20 pm local time, according to city Parks Department spokeswoman Meghan Lalor. One person, a teenage boy, is reportedly believed to have suffered a direct hit that witnesses said appeared to send him flying into the air. He was hospitalized in critical condition and suffering cardiac arrest according to police sources. All six people who were injured were taken to Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx.
"They were out for an ordinary day at the beach. Once the rain started they got ready to leave, and out of nowhere, they were struck," he added.
