COLUMBUS, MS (AP) - Authorities have resumed the search for two young brothers who were passengers in an all-terrain vehicle that overturned in a Mississippi creek. Columbus Fire Chief Kenneth MooreMore >>
Authorities have recovered the body of a 6-year-old boy who apparently drowned after an all-terrain vehicle overturned in a Mississippi creek, while the search for his brother continued.
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 in 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.
