Four female football players seeking shelter under a tree in Colombia were struck by lightning and lost their lives.
A man who was with them died in the hospital, while two women were hospitalized due to serious burns.
The four deceased female football players were identified as Jeidy Morales, Daniela Mosquera, Luz Lame, and Etelvina Mosquera.
Initial reports indicated that the players were taking shelter in a bench by the field in Cajibio, Colombia.
However, government spokesperson Lesly Valencia stated, "According to the information I have, the women were participating in a football tournament when the emergency occurred. A lightning bolt struck a tree, which caused the deaths of the four women."
Friend Tata Velasco said, "What sad news. Rest in peace, Daniela."
A local resident commented, "What they did was very dangerous. Trees attract lightning."
This incident followed the event in Peru where a football player lost his life and five others were injured due to a lightning strike during a match.
