Terrified neighbour captures moment lightning strikes house in Wales

This is the moment a terrified neighbour was filming a storm in Wrexham, North Wales when she captured the moment lightning struck a house.

The shocking incident took place at about 7:45 pm local time on Wednesday (August 12).

Donna Michelle Tizzard, who lives nearby and just so happened to capture the moment, told Newsflare: "Myself and my daughter were just discussing the rainbows when lightning struck a home down the road.

"Fair to say myself and my daughter jumped out of our skin and our poor cockapoo bolted for cover," she said.

According to local media, North Wales Fire and Rescue Service were called after neighbours spotted smoke.
