    The product, in the report: Barbara King set of 2 illuminate Tiki torches rechargeable

    On Monday July 3, 2017 at 13:39 ours [REDACTED] received a 911 call form [REDACTED] of [REDACTED] reporting a building fire at [REDACTED]. I arrived as the first firefighter on scene and was the Incident commander for this fire. The fire was almost completely extinguished by [REDACTED], also of [REDACTED] using a garden hose. Upon my arrival I observed a small smoldering fire on the patio next to [REDACTED] with flame damage to the exterior south facing wall. The door to the house was locked and no one appeared to be home. Firefighter’s used a ladder to access a second floor window and confirmed there were no occupants. Firefighter’s also confirmed that fire damage was limited to the exterior, overhaul was completed and suppression crews were dismissed. According to the [REDACTED], this property is a 1,892 square foot, three story, wood frame home with vinyl siding built in 1992. I walked clockwise around the entire building and noted there to be no other signs of fire. The area of origin was located on the patio adjacent to the stairs and along the south facing wall of the home. I then focused on the area of origin and found the melted remains of a plastic patio chair with what appeared to be an electronic device welded to the remains of the chair. There were two transformer plugs on the ground in front of the fire area. The neighbor from [REDACTED], Mr.[REDACTED] reported to me that he heard a loud pop from outside his home and shortly after became aware of the fire when a neighbor alerted him. [REDACTED] of [REDACTED] says, saw a fire up against the side and to the left of the door to number [REDACTED]. After seeing the fire, Ms. [REDACTED] said she alerted the [REDACTED] to the fire. Mrs. [REDACTED] said she called 911 to report the fire while Mr. [REDACTED] used a garden hose attached to [REDACTED] to extinguish the fire. Mr. [REDACTED] said he removed the transformer plugs from the outlet located in the exterior
