A balcony crashed onto a parked car after being reportedly hit by lightning in Victoria, Gozo, this morning.

Eyewitnesses said the incident happened at about 10.30 a.m. in Main Gate Street.

The lightning bolt brought down the second floor concrete balcony onto a parked Toyota belonging to a Victoria shopowner, badly damaging it but causing no injuries. Another parked car and a car which was being driven by were also damaged.

The stonework of a lower balcony was damaged as the debris fell.
