LLOYD NECK, NY — A Lloyd Neck home caught fire on Monday evening, prompting the Huntington Fire Department to lead a 50-firefighter response to douse the flames.

Firefighters arrived at a heavily smoking house on Gerry Lane at 6:15 p.m. July 18, said public information officer Steve Silverman.

No one was home at the time of the fire, Suffolk police said. Detectives believe the fire may have been caused by a lightning strike.
