Email james.gant@mailonline.co.uk Two hikers have been rushed to hospital after being struck by lightning on a mountain. The women were at the summit of Snowdon in Wales when freak-weather hit the region yesterday afternoon. Rescuers said one of the women was bleeding and falling in and out of consciousness when they arrived on the 3,560ft-peak at 1.47pm. North Wales Police were called and volunteer crews from Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team were sent along with the Coast Guard rescue helicopter. One of the walkers sustained minor injuries during the incident while the other sustained serious injuries. A witness told MailOnline: When we arrived it was sunny very windy before that there was a lightning storm after getting out of the train for around 20 minutes.
