TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Sunday’s game between the St. Louis Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers has been stopped in the first half because of lightning.

Players and coaches were ordered off the field with 6:03 remaining in the second quarter. Fans were advised to seek shelter in covered concourse areas of Raymond James Stadium until severe weather clears the area.

The score was tied 7-7.
