Fifty one people have been injured in a lightning storm at a rock music festival in western Germany.
Fifteen of the victims were listed in serious condition, organisers said on Saturday.
Live music performances were suspended for about 90 minutes late Friday while rescue teams dealt with the injured at the Rock am Ring festival at the former Mendig airbase west of Koblenz.
The festival resumed later with about 90,000 fans in attendance.
Headlining bands include the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Black Sabbath.
