A wall along Stevens Road was destroyed after apparently getting struck by lightning at around 3pm today (April 18).

Stomp contributor Nicholas, who was at the scene, sent photos of the aftermath to the citizen journalism website.

The lightning strike destroyed a huge portion of the wall, scattering debris all over the road.

“I was walking into my house during the heavy rain when I heard a loud crack of thunder, and something hit me on the neck,” said Nicholas.

“I realised it was a mall piece of a brick. So I walked out to see what had happened and was shocked to see this.”

The Stomp contributor said that a passing police patrol unit stopped to inspect the area after they saw the damage.

The heavy rain also caused a flash flood near Mount Elizabeth Hospital, and left a car stranded.
