"HANOI, Vietnam - Lightning struck a house in northern Vietnam, injuring 51
people who were inside watching a popular television show, an official said
Saturday.
The village is not wired for electricity, but one house is powered by a
0.5-kilowatt power generator run by stream water. The lightning struck the
generator and sent a current through the 14-inch television set that
everyone was gathered around, Thinh said. "
