Two Denbigh High School footballers were taken to hospital by ambulance after lightning struck during this afternoon’s ISSA daCosta Cup quarterfinal clash against 12-time champions Cornwall College at the Cornwall College playing field in Montego Bay, St James. The match, which was scheduled to kick off earlier, started 30 minutes late because of inclement weather. The incident occurred shortly before half-time, when Denbigh players Omarion Wright and Lashawn Barnaby were seen lying on the field after the lightning strike.
