(Before It's News)

 

The Sheriff in an eastern Oklahoma county said his office is investigating what could be a case of spontaneous combustion.
Sequoyah County Sheriff Ron Lockhart told News On 6 that deputies were called to a house on Bawcom Road, between Sallisaw and Muldrow, around 10:50 a.m. Monday. A neighbor had reported seeing smoke coming out of a home.
 
Lockhart said they found the nearly completely charred remains of a man in the kitchen, but that there was no other damage done to the home.
 
An 11-year-old cancer survivor who was hospitalized with a head injury is now recovering from third-degree burns after her shirt mysteriously caught fire in a Portland, Ore., hospital room.
 
The girl, Ireland Lane, had been painting in her room at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital, ABC affiliate KATU reported. Moments later, she ran into the hallway screaming, with her T-shirt aflame.
 
“I’ve been in medicine going back 30 years now and never heard anything like this. And hopefully I never will again,” Dr. Stacy Nicholson, physician-in-chief at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital, told KATU.
 
This phenomona is rare but to have it happen twice on the same day, that’s even more rare.  Im glad the cancer survivor lived. Poor thing.  If you want to look up more about this phenomona, go HERE  -Mort
