Abstract: A night watchman was at his work location, guarding a grocery store. The grocery store caught fire. Because the grocery store doors and windows were secured with steel security gates that were padlocked on the exterior of the building, the guard could not escape the burning building. He died of smoke inhalation. The cause of the fire was determined to be in the electrical wiring system.
