TRAFALGAR, Ind. — Medics evaluated about 15 children and took two to a hospital as a precaution Thursday after lightning struck a south suburban Indianapolis cabin, authorities said.

None of the injuries appeared serious. Several children and adults reported minor pain from being shocked, Johnson County deputies said.

The lightning struck a wooden cabin at the FFA Indiana Leadership Center in Trafalgar during a severe thunderstorm.

There was no damage to any of the buildings at the FFA center, said Joe Ramey, the center’s executive director.
