JEMPOL: Three people, including a toddler, were killed and a child injured when they were struck by lightning at Felda Palong Enam near here, late on Tuesday. Amidst the human remains, police also found seven dead goats and two dead dogs with burn marks on their fur. It is understood that the victims were initially discovered by neighbours after a family member reported that they had failed to return home from a nearby goat farm. “Neighbours who went to the farm initially heard the cries of the injured child before finding the three victims, (who died at the scene). “It is believed that it was raining heavily, with lightning, (when the incident occurred),” said Jempol police chief Superintendent Muhd Nur Hishamuddin Hashim.
