Yesterday it was reported that a man in New Mexico caught a mouse in his house, threw it on a pile of burning leaves, and the flaming mouse ran back into the house. The house completely burned down.

Today it has been reported by WSB-TV in Atlanta that it didn’t really happen that way. The homeowner is quoted as saying that the mouse was actually dead when he threw it on the pile of burning leaves. The house caught fire due to high winds, it seems.
