Trees in the football field was hit by lightning
A local news reported acacia trees in football field was hit by a lightning late in the afternoon while there were players playing.
They're lucky no one was hit except the coach who was hit by shockwave and rushed to nearby hospital. And he's now out of danger.

@Nakitakona typhoons are more dangerous than hurricanes right?

@askme123 I have seen the movie Twister. It's too dangerous. Are tornadoes dangerous than hurricanes?

It's terrible to be hit by a lightning. But the referee is well and good. He's safe.

How scary was that? Several years ago there were people playing soccer or foootball that were hit on a field here.

Thankfully the coach is out of danger!
This is quite a shocking incident. Is this Football field in a high altitude area?
