Lightning at a music festival France has injured 15 people, including two seriously, local media reports.
A woman in her 60s and a 44-year-old man were in a critical condition after they were hit directly by the lightning at the Vieux Canal festival in Azerailles in the country's northeast.
A storm began shortly before the beginning of the festival and the lightning struck a tent where people had sought refuge.
The festival was cancelled as result.
