TITUSVILLE, Fla. – Officials say a yacht that caught fire Thursday at the Kennedy Point Yacht Club was possibly started by a lightning strike.
Fire and emergency crews were able to knock out most of the fire, but had to hold off due to severe weather that moved through the area.

Firefighters were unable to rescue Johnson's 6-year-old dog.
