Cigarette butt ‘likely’ cause of fire in southwest France
A cigarette butt tossed out of a car is the likely cause of a fire in southwest France that damaged thousands of acres of forest and cut off electricity to homes in Spain, Portugal and Morocco.  The fire began at lunchtime on Saturday in the central reservation of a major road between Carcassonne and Narbonne in France.  Eight hundred firefighters were still trying to put out the flames on Sunday, which devastated 2,100 acres of forest, according to a report in The Times.  Firefighter Colonel Jean-Luc Baccari said that "everyone can guess pretty easily what the probable origin was. It was sadly very likely that it was caused by a cigarette butt thrown [from a car]".
