Lightning struck a teenager while he was four-wheeling over Red Cone Pass with friends. The teenage was struck on the right side of the chest. He stopped breathing and was resuscitated by a friend.
A mail carrier was struck by lightning as he inserted a key into a multi-unit mailbox. The shock knocked the man back against his transport truck, he suffered minor injuries.
