Upon witnessing a car fire in a local parking lot, Plano firefighters
believed that the situation warranted an investigation. According to their reports, the car contained
several cans of computer cleaner that were likely used by the driver to become
intoxicated. These possess a chemical called difluoroethane which is highly flammable.
Therefore, they believe the car ignited when the driver tried to light a
cigarette after abusing inhalants.
At the time of the incident, the driver was seen running
from the burning car. However, local authorities soon found him. After taking
him into custody, they quickly brought him to Parkland Hospital in order to
treat his non-life threatening burns.
