Unfortunately, The Villages doesn't like to publicize "bad news" which is why things like this are not widely reported. The strike a few weeks ago in Linden was reported by the local groups and the homeowner who witnessed the strike.
The fire department will not report the event as lightning unless there is clear evidence or someone witnessing the event.

From the street the Linden home looked like the gas line was hit in the left front corner. Black scorch mark on the corner. The concrete block wall was cracked and bowed out from the strike.
