            *** 1 INJ ***
            A 66 year-old female was indirectly struck
            by lightning when walking outside. The
            lightning struck a nearby generator area and
            then by either a side flash or ground
            current indirectly caused burn injuries to
            the victims hands and feet. The time of the
            event was based on the victims report and
            archived lightning data. The cost of
            lightning damage was unknown, but her
            generator was a complete loss.
