    Dangerous car fire results from speakers

    Early Friday afternoon, a Chevelot Caprice caught on

    fire in the Aggie Suites parking lot caused from speakers in the

    trunk of the car.

    A student from Danville, N.C. was inside of the car

    when he noticed that the car was overheated and a fire started to

    develop in the trunk. He then proceeded to run inside Aggie Suites

    E dorm to fill a trash can up with water.

    When returning, he found the car to be completely on

    fire. Firefighters and campus police were called and proceeded set

    the fire out. After ten minutes of trying to open the trunk, a crow

    bar successfully revealed that the speakers were found to be the

    cause of the fire.

    Resulting from the fire, another car that was parked

    next to the Caprice is also damaged.The car is still in the parking

    lot of Aggie Suites and will soon be towed.
