A woman's relaxing day at a Florida beach turned into a nightmare when a loose umbrella flew through the air and stabbed her in the leg. A woman's relaxing day at a Florida beach turned into a nightmare when a loose umbrella flew through the air and stabbed her in the leg. This umbrella accident has beach-goers and local officials worried about how to keep beach gear from hurting anyone else.
Sybil Licht was enjoying a day at Cocoa Beach with her family when their rented beach umbrella suddenly dislodged from its position in the sand. The umbrella, caught by the wind, flew towards the group and struck Licht, its pole becoming lodged in her leg, according to the Cocoa Beach Police Department as reported by WESH.
Emergency crews and firefighters from Brevard County and Cocoa Beach helped the injured woman. They had to use bolt cutters to remove the umbrella canopy from the pole, which remained embedded in Licht's leg and continued to move, as officials informed Fox News Digital.
Exact details about the circumstances that led to this unusual accident remain unclear. Sybil Licht's current condition is also unknown, leaving many concerned about her well-being.
The Cocoa Beach Police Department confirmed their involvement in handling the scene to The Post but could not confirm a specific date for the incident.
This alarming incident shows that even ordinary beach equipment can be dangerous if improperly secured. People must be more cautious and ensure umbrellas are firmly anchored in the sand, especially during breezy conditions.
