4h agoA 55-year-old woman has died after she was pulled from the water at Manhattan Beach in Brooklyn on Monday evening, according to police.
The NYPD says a lifeguard spotted the woman unconscious in the water around 6:15 p.m. off Oriental Boulevard near MacKenzie Street.
Video from the scene shows first responders performing CPR on the sand before EMS took her to Coney Island Hospital. She was pronounced dead a short time later.
Police say it’s not yet clear if her death was a drowning. The medical examiner will determine the official cause.
This comes just days after another deadly water incident at a Brooklyn beach. On Aug. 6, an 18-year-old was pulled from the water at Coney Island Beach, near the Cyclone. He did not survive.
With two serious beach emergencies in less than a week, city officials are reminding people to:
- Swim only when lifeguards are on duty
- Never swim alone — always have a buddy
- Pay attention to beach flags and signs, which can warn about dangerous conditions like rip currents
Police say this remains an active investigation.
