At least one person was killed and 13 others, including a 7-year-old, were injured in a lightning strike at an outdoor archery club in southern New Jersey on Wednesday evening, according to officials.

This was the 12th lightning fatality in the country this year, according to the National Weather Service. It's the second death in New Jersey in as many weeks, after a 28-year-old golfer died after being struck by lightning on a course in Hamburg on July 8.

The victim he fell in love with archery at a young age participated in numerous competitions dating back to the 1970s, his sister said.
