Lighter In Pocket Starts Dryer Fire

Check your pockets before doing the next round of laundry.

Fire officials have determined a cigarette lighter left in someone's pocket was what sparked a dryer fire in West Warwick Tuesday evening at "Tumbletown 2" on Main Street.

Damage was done to several other machines, but the facility is expected to reopen today.

The business owners are reminding people of the importance of checking for items, no matter how small, which could pose a hazard.
