| episode_narrative | A thunderstorm that moved through Culpeper County around 5:30 PM produced a lightning bolt that injured a man 3 miles northwest of Culpeper. A deputy sheriff was walking to his squad car parked in his driveway along Route 729 when a lightning bolt struck nearby. He fell to the ground after being shocked by the bolt and had no feeling below his waist. Using his arms, he dragged himself back into his home to call for help. He was taken to a local hospital and within a few hours regained feeling in his legs. On his property, two cars would not start after the computer ignition systems were damaged by the strike. Also, the radio in the squad car was fried by the bolt. |
