Today In - 'Horrible Headlines'

Um, doy.

That's like saying: 'Heart attack victim loved red meat and Twinkies'
Jogger struck by lightning loved running, family says

'JEFFERSON COUNTY – The family of a jogger struck and killed by lightning said he loved to go swimming, rock climbing and running.

Our partners at The Denver Post talked to the family of Lucas "Luke" Simmons on Monday.

Simmons' family tells the Post the 24-year-old's favorite place to run was Matthews/Winter Park in Jefferson County.

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office says Simmons was jogging in the park Friday when he was struck and killed by lightning.

According to his family, Simmons was a project manager for Mortenson Construction Co. After the tsunami in Thailand, he volunteered to rebuild the home of a fisherman who had lost his entire family.'
