I tried everything; I was, even, even when they took him away, I was optimistic that he was going to make it.


 


Peter Datch is still shaken up after witnessing a total stranger now identified as Ronald McCreaty take his final steps.


 


I could've made a friend than I lost one.


 


While police can't confirm lightening 1 is what killed the 68-year-old Hamilton man, Datch says what he witnessed just before 5 yesterday afternoon as he was riding his bike here along this trail during a thunderstorm was unmistakable.


 


Then I see the bolt 2 of lightning and a crack, and, uh, I just said to myself: oh my God, oh my God, what am I going to do?


 


Datch said after McCreaty collapsed 3, he looked for any signs of burn marks on the victim's hands and feet, but there were none. In fact, the only sign he could see the lightening has struck was the burnt hard bark on this tree.


 


When the paramedics arrived, they asked, well, how do you know he was struck by lightning? I said, well, look at the tree. 


 


Datch and another man gave him CPR for 5 minutes before paramedics arrived, but it would be in vain. Those who knew McCreaty who lived in this apartment building by himself on Hamilton Mountain, say he loved his daily walk.


 


I felt really sad because I used to see him walking up and down the street almost every day.


 


The superintendent 4 of his former building says he was stunned 5 to learn what had happened.


 


Not a very good way to die. I can think of other ways to die, but not, hit by lightning.


 


Peter Datch realizes he is lucky, it could have easily been him.


 


I was 2 to 3 seconds away from getting off my bike and being with him.
