NC man struck by lightning for 3rd time

wls
By ABC7
July 18, 2012 (CHARLOTTE, N.C.)

Bob Edwards was leaving a restaurant this week when he says there was a purple flash, and he felt like he'd been hit in the chest with a hammer.

Edwards had to be revived three times. He says he was struck by lightning on the same road in 1997, and three years ago in South Carolina.
