Snake Blamed for burning down home -


Snake Blamed for burning down home - 


Authorities believe a homeowner's response to finding a 
snake in her yard may have led to the fire that destroyed her house 
Wednesday.
The fire sparked at a home on Will Smith Road in the Liberty Eylau area of Bowie County, TX just before 7 p.m.

"While cleaning up, she saw snake, threw gasoline on the snake, lit 
the snake on fire," said Deputy Randall Baggett with the Bowie County 
Sheriff's Office. "The snake went into the brush pile and the brush pile
caught the home on fire."
Despite the efforts of several fire departments that responded to the
scene, the flames completely engulfed the home. It is a complete loss. A
neighboring home was also damaged on one side.
The fire remains under investigation. 

There has been no word from officials on whether charges will be filed.
