CLARKSTON, Ga. (AP) — Fire officials say several families have been displaced by a blaze at a metro Atlanta apartment complex.
DeKalb County Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Crump tells WSB-TV (http://bit.ly/1PC27DF ) a bolt of lightning struck a tree Monday night and jumped to the roof of the Avalon on Montreal apartment complex in Clarkston.
Crump says the fire destroyed two apartments, two others sustained water damage and part of the roof caved in.
Crump tells CBS46 that lightning strikes during a storm that passed through the area Monday evening caused four fires in the county.
