Burning Mouse Ignites Blaze That Destroys Home
SOURCE: WFTV.comPOSTED: 5:19 pm EST January 8, 2006
FORT SUMNER, N.M. -- The village fire captain said he's never seen a blaze as unique as this.
A Fort Sumner, N.M., man said he caught a mouse inside his house and wanted to get rid of it. He had a pile of leaves burning outside, so he threw the mouse on it. The mouse caught fire and ran back into the house.
Luciano Mares, 81, talked about the event Saturday from a motel room. The blaze the mouse started destroyed the home and everything inside it. Update: 'Flaming Mouse' Story Proven False, according to MSNBC
The mouse was apparently already dead - trapped and killed by the homeowner - when placed on the fire. Probability suggests it was the wind that ignited the house, destroying everything inside.
