Fire at Cricket Club Blamed on Rabbit
August 13, 2004 03:17 PM EDT
DEVIZES, England - Investigators in England think a fire at a cricket club was caused by a burning bunny. The blaze destroyed a tool shed at the Devizes Cricket Club, wiping out more than $100,000 worth of turf mowers and other equipment.
It's being blamed on a rabbit that was hiding in a pile of branches stacked up for a bonfire. Moments after members of the grounds crew lit it, the rabbit ran out with its tail on fire and dashed into the shed.
Within a half-hour, the shed was on fire.
The Devizes fire commander says he's "99-percent confident" the rabbit did it. But he says the bunny may have gotten away. No remains were found, so he says it either got out through a hole in a corner of the shed or was "burnt to a cinder."
