From our friend Derek Kinkade at WTVM in Columbus GA: we’ve just learned that 3 people have been struck by lightning at Wind Creek State Park in Tallapoosa County.. 1 person was transported to Russell Medical Center in Alex City, and the other 2 people recieved treatment on site and did not require hospitalization.

Underscores how dangerous lightning is and how important it is that we all exercise precautions anytime we hear thunder…
