FOXNews.com – Foxlife – Out There – Lightning Strikes Sleeping Girl’s Bed

Kaylee Shriner, 7, was sleeping in her own bed in the town of Tonganoxie (search), 25 miles west of Kansas City, when a bolt of lightning struck her house on the morning of June 30. The jolt went through the roof, into the house’s frame, down a metal beam and into the steel springs of Kaylee’s mattress, which was touching a bedroom wall.

….Kaylee described her parents’ reaction. "[Dad] said a bad word, and then Mom heard it, and then she went upstairs, and then she said a bad word," she told KMBC. "There were lots of bad words around here."
