Lightning strikes multiple campers in Fort Atkinson

Storms that moved through Jefferson County tonight produced much needed rainfall but they also featured frequent cloud to ground lightning. At Jellystone Park south of Fort Atkinson, at least 4 people were taken to the hospital after lightning struck in the popular camp ground. I don't have many more details than that at this point, but I will update the story as I learn more.

Update
5 were injured, but no one was struck directly or killed. Source for update: NBC 15.
