Shivamogga: Brothers in Bhadravathi struck dead by lightning in their field
Shivamogga: In a tragic incident following heavy rainfall in Bhadravathi taluk, two brothers, identified as 32-year-old Beeru and 35-year-old Suresh, lost their lives after being struck by lightning in their farm near Hunasekatte Junction on Tuesday night.
The duo, both farmers residing in Gouligara Camp in Bhadravathi, had recently harvested the paddy they cultivated and stacked it in their field. Concerned about the potential damage to the harvested paddy due to the heavy rain in the region, Beeru and Suresh visited the field on Tuesday night to safeguard their produce but tragically fell victim to a lightning strike.
The incident came to light when family members, growing anxious as the brothers did not return, initiated a search.
The Bhadravathi Rural Police were informed, and upon arrival at the field, they conducted an inspection. The bodies of Beeru and Suresh were subsequently transported to the Bhadravathi Government Hospital for a post-mortem examination.
