A South Summit family of six narrowly escaped a fire that overtook their nearly 100-year-old home early Tuesday morning, according to the South Summit Fire District. Amid the thunderstorms that hit the area overnight on Monday, lightning struck the home, on Foothill Drive in Kamas, setting it on fire. At around 1:26 a.m., firefighters from the South Summit Fire District responded to the home with seven fire trucks and 14 crew members. The Park City Fire District also sent a water truck. Scott Nagle, a public information officer with the South Summit Fire Protection District, said the home was fully engulfed when crews arrived, with smoke and flames visible from the roof.
