Early morning fire in Traverse City


Newsman videographing

I looked out my hotel window early this morning … and saw many firetrucks and firemen on the road where my hotel is. The apartment complex across the hotel was smoldering. Last night, there was a violent thunderstorm, and at about 1:30 AM, I heard lightning struck near the hotel. I looked out the window – just saw pouring rain, so I didn’t make anything out of it.

Then the firetrucks and firemen this morning … it turned out that lightning struck the apartment complex across and burnt. Nobody was hurt, but people were rendered homeless and some pets were missing.
