Fire started with a microwave explosion. The Subject supposedly had something that never should have been in there and it exploded. Soon after there was smoke with no fire visible. The subject then proceeded to vent the house by opening up her front door and using an electric fan to let the smoke out. Oxygen was givin to the fire and you all know the rest of the story.
