Lightning kills recently wed Chinese couple as they explored the Great Wall...

Lightning struck and killed a recently married Chinese couple as they climbed an undeveloped section of the Great Wall in Beijing, a state-controlled newspaper said Sunday.

The force of the lightning strike caused the pair to fall from the 164-foot (50-meter) -high wall in Huairou, a Beijing suburb, the Beijing Times newspaper reported.

Rescuers arrived about two hours later but the couple, who married late last year, had already stopped breathing, the report said. They were both 27 years old. More...
