A man driving a golf cart-style vehicle is in critical but stable condition at Jersey Shore University Medical Center today after he fell from the cart while making maneuvers during Wednesday night\u2019s Halloween parade.<\/p>\n

Harold Oswald, 80, performing \u201cvarious maneuvers in the roadway\u201d when he lost control of the vehicle, causing it to tip, said police spokeswoman Jillian Messina.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was thrown from the cart, striking his head on the pavement,\u201d said Messina.<\/p>\n

Oswald was transported to Jersey Shore Medical Center with a skull fracture and is listed as critical but stable condition.\u00a0It was also discovered that he was not wearing a helmet at the time of\u00a0the crash, nor was the cart\u00a0equipped with safety belts.<\/p>\n

Due to the popularity of the parade, police believe some parade-goers may have possession of a video of the incident which would aid in determining the cause of the crash. If any residents have video of the accident, they are being asked to forward them to\u00a0Ptl. Pascal Gambardella at\u00a0pgambardella@trpolice.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n
