From Annarbor.com last night, “Fire in residence hall room displaces 8 University of Michigan students.” Basically, a microwave incident went bad:
Eight University of Michigan students were displaced for at least the night after a fire that started in a microwave in the Baits housing complex spread to a resident’s room, university officials said.
No one was injured in the 3 p.m. fire in the Cross House of Baits on North Campus.
Diane Brown, a spokeswoman for the University of Michigan Department of Public Safety, said a resident was reheating food in a microwave, and it appears aluminum foil caught fire.
