A 31-year-old mother and her two-year-old daughter have died after being struck by lightning while returning home in the United States.
The victims were identified as Kenya Glasgow and her daughter, Kennedy. According to police, the mother and child were getting out of their vehicle on Sunday afternoon when lightning struck them.
Emergency responders arrived at the scene after receiving a 911 call at about 2:30 p.m. They found the mother and daughter lying on a sidewalk.
A witness, Prince Moody, said he noticed an orange glow through his window before rushing outside to assist. He described the scene as extremely traumatic and immediately called 911.
Kenya was taken to North Broward Medical Center, while her daughter was transported to Broward Health Medical Center. Despite efforts by emergency responders and medical staff to revive them, both were pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospitals.
The children's father, Kameron Glasgow, described his wife and daughter as “amazing people” and spoke emotionally about the devastating loss.
He said Kenya had always put others before herself and had played a major role in shaping the person he had become.
The family had reportedly been preparing to go inside for dinner as the rain intensified when the lightning strike occurred.
Kameron said the loss would be particularly difficult for the family because Kennedy had a surviving twin sister.
He described Kennedy as an energetic child who loved music and could sing every word of songs by Benson Boone.
The grieving father said he would have to remain strong for his surviving daughter despite the painful loss of his wife and child.
