In Fremont, Ohio, a man told police he was using spray paint and a lighter to kill a mouse when he accidentally set fire to his garage. But, before that, he told them he saw flames in boxes he had recently mounted on the back of stereo speakers and that he tried to kick the fire out, but the fire spread and became worse. He then told them he went to the garage to smoke and noticed black smoke filling the garage, then ran to get a pan of water but returned to find the fire out of control.
