Lightning Strike on Mount Etna Kills Hiker | Washington DC News
A 29-year-old Kansas tourist died after being struck by lightning while hiking Mount Etna in Sicily — a tragedy that underscores how even non-erupting volcanoes can be deadly. Despite emergency airlift and care, he didn’t survive. Lightning has claimed more lives on Etna than eruptions since 1987, reminding adventurers that nature’s beauty can hide lethal surprises. Officials urge hikers to monitor weather and respect the mountain’s power — especially when visibility is poor or conditions shift fast.
