text: The owner of the property told investigators that he had been cooking in the kitchen when he heard popping sounds. He went down to his breaker panel in the basement to investigate. But when he returned upstairs, he saw that a bed was in flames, and attempted to put it out with a garden hose. However, this failed attempt caused a delay in calling the authorities, resulting in more damages than necessary.
