Dissect the photo.
Bottle did not break or melt.
Rag-fuse not completely consumed.
Small burn patch in the background.
Damn fools can’t even start a grass fire by the interstate.
Freshman team.
Dissect the photo.

OK
Policeman holding plastic bottle
Burned area in background (fire quickly put out)
Cloth “Wick” not entirely burned
Fire residue on plastic bottle (woody/vegetative debris)
Supposition: Good thing the fire was found quickly and put out
Sorry, left out:
Fact: Someone used a plastic bottle to try to set a fire (inept, yes...but burned enough of the bottle to puncture it letting the fluid out)
If fire had been set at 1-4 am...Not so fast detection, more devastating effect, bottle would have been consumed in resulting fire.
