A New Jersey teen was killed in a horrific accident on the Jersey Shore this weekend when she was struck by a propeller while trying to get on a boat, police said.
Zeina Mahafzah, 18, was killed around 4:30 p.m. while trying to get from a raft into the boat that was pulling in Sunset Park on Long Beach Island, New Jersey State Police said in a statement.
The teen from Wayne “sustained fatal injuries” from the propeller, cops said, without elaborating.
Sources initially told NBC 10 Philadelphia that the teen was dismembered while her dad drove the boat. However, the outlet did not include those details in updated reporting and police would not confirm who witnessed the horror.
First responders to the scene reported that other people on the boat witnessed the teen’s death, the outlet reported.
A police investigation is ongoing.
