Lightning
A Louisiana coroner says a man working on a Slidell-area construction site died after being struck by lightning.

St. Tammany Parish coroner Dr. Charles Preston said in a news release that Elvin Arturo Castro-Santiago, 36, was working Wednesday when he was struck.

Preston says Castro-Santiago was taken to Ochsner Northshore where he later died.

Preston says the tragedy underscores the deadly force of nature.
