Rare Lightning Death in California

Thunderstorms in Southern California caused injuries and a death on Sunday due to lightning.

Several people were taken to the hospital after a lightning bolt struck in Venice Beach during the afternoon.

An unusual shift in monsoonal moisture brought storms to the region and impacted the beaches of the area.
