Firefighters were called to a home in the North Hills Wednesday night after lightning struck it, setting it on fire.
The fire happened in Marshall Township, along Searight Drive at about 9pm. The fire caused damage to the roof and inside the house. According to Channel 11 News, neighbors say the lightning came out of nowhere before any storms or rain had moved into the area.
The family inside of the house said they didn't realize that their house had been hit until a neighbor told them. This was the second house in a year in that same neighborhood to be hit by lightning.
The first home was just two doors down from this one. |

The estate of a man allegedly abused by a priest has announced a lawsuit against the Roman Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, alleging the man committed suicide earlier this year after the diocese stopped paying for his mental health treatments following two other suicide attempts.
According to WPXI-TV, 39-year-old Michael Unglo committed suicide in May at a Massachusetts facility.
Unglo was allegedly molested in the early 1980s while an altar boy, by a priest who was convicted of molesting another boy and later resigned. |
