A man has died after being struck by lightning on a American beach while trying to warn other beach goers of an incoming storm. Patrick Dispoto, 59, was at Seaside Park Beach in New Jersey with his girlfriend on Sunday but they returned to his truck when they realised a storm was approaching. His girlfriend Ruth Fussell told police she waited in the truck while Dispoto went back to the beach to warn others. “He said, ‘I’ll be right back’.
In April, Seaside Park officials purchased the Strike Guard Lightning Detection System, an investment of nearly $50,000. The system aims to provide lightning warnings by monitoring cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning strikes within a radius set by the user of up to 32km. Seaside Park borough administrator Karen Kroon told CNN the system, which had been in preparation for months, was meant to have been installed on Wednesday.
