Qacha’s Nek, Feb.14 — Horryifying moment as three children aged between 15 and 18 and 29 livestock tragically got wiped out by lightning at a cattle post in Lebakeng, Ha-Letete.
The trio are said to have died instantly after a burning cattle post collapsed on them.
In an interview with the Agency, Cattle post owner Mr. Teboho Thabakholo said it was in the evening when he saw smoke and immediately called a person nearer to the scene and he confirmed his suspicion.
“I rushed to the chief’s place immediately before I could go to the cattle post to see what was happening…only to find my animals, two children along with that of my neighbour dead after looking for them,” he said revealing their heads and feet were burnt to ashes while that of their neighbours lost both his hands and feet.
