The two elk hunters found dead last week in southern Colorado were killed by lightning, according to the Conejos County coroner. Both men were killed by lightning, but were not directly struck, Conejos County Coroner Richard Martin said. “A lightning strike to the ground took them in an instant,” Bridget Murphy, Porter’s fiancée, wrote Monday in an update on social media. “He was an experienced outdoorsman who was in the wrong spot at the wrong time,” Murphy wrote of Porter. It could’ve happened anywhere, to anyone.”Get more Colorado news by signing up for our daily Your Morning Dozen email newsletter.
