Man set house on fire while trying to kill a spider with a lighter

[combom]

Firefighters say the man, in his 40s, had been trying to set fire to the spider as it crawled up the front of the semi-detached property

But sparks reached material behind the cladding and caused a fire within the walls, shortly before midnight.

Three fire engines raced to the scene in Portsmouth, Hants, and found the man trying to put out the flames with a garden hose.

makes you wonder why he didn't get a shoe or a rolled up paper to bash it with, maybe he had been drinking or was bored.
