He’s been known for decades as a Philadelphia muckraker who has exposed everything from corruption to closed criminal cases and more. And now his time in Philadelphia will come to an end.

A horrifying incident occurred on the Jersey Shore earlier today, but a victim is recovering at an area hospital. A lifeguard was impaled by a beach umbrella on the beach in Asbury Park, NJ around 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday. It happened in the area of 3rd Avenue, reports say. The incident is kind of everyone's nightmare who has ever visited the Jersey Shore. The umbrella went through the woman’s upper left shoulder and came out her back, Asbury Park Fire Department Chief Kevin Keddy told the media.
