A man has been struck by lightning during an ocean swim on the NSW Central Coast.
The man, in his 20s, was in the water at Ettalong Beach - the eastern extension of Umina Beach - just before 4pm on Saturday when he was electrocuted by a lightning strike.
Paramedics worked on the man before he was rushed to Gosford hospital in a serious condition.
“My thoughts are with the person injured in the lightning strike at Umina Beach and their family during what must be an incredibly frightening time,” Central Coast Councillor Jared Wright said.
“I want to acknowledge the efforts of NSW Ambulance, police and all emergency services personnel responding to the incident, particularly those working to get the patient safely to Gosford Hospital.”
