Lightning Causes Broken Arrow Home To Catch Fire Overnight

Lightning sparked a fire at a home in Broken Arrow on Tuesday night. It happened around 10:30 p.m. near 193rd East Avenue and the Creek Turnpike.

The owner said she got a call from the renters living at the house who said lightning hit the house and caused it to catch on fire.
