Authorities say a lightning strike sparked a fire that destroyed an Oregon home and killed two pets.
Jefferson Fire District spokeswoman Tammy Robbins says renter Maria Lugo awoke to the sound of what she thought was pounding rain or hail. When she looked out the window, she saw flames.
Lugo and five relatives – three of them children – escaped as flames engulfed the house. A Chihuahua named “Angel” and a bird named “Blue” did not make it out.
Firefighters needed 2 ½ hours to get the fire under control Thursday morning.
The 2,500-square foot home was built in 1940. Jefferson is about 65 miles south of Portland.
