Lightning kills 7 in rural South Africa
A government official says a lightning strike in a remote area of eastern South Africa has killed seven people attending an end-of-year meeting for nursery schools.
Bonginkosi Meshack Radebe, the provincial welfare minister, said Saturday that a four-year-old child was among those killed Friday. The others were adults and included a nursery school principal and teachers who had gathered from across the rural area for the meeting. (AP)
