The Associated Press reports that lightning struck near a boardwalk Tuesday where a crowd had gathered to watch an eruption of the Old Faithful Geyser.
A spokesman said the lightning bolt hit the ground in front of the geyser, near the Old Faithful Visitor Center. It did not strike anyone directly.
11 people were injured, the most badly injured was a 12-year-old boy who had to be resuscitated by two doctors and a nurse also visiting the geyser.
