TP’d home burns down after family try to clear away mess with fire

A family in Alabama burned their house to the ground after trying to get rid of toilet paper hanging from a tree by setting it on fire. Cheryl Crausewell said local children had “rolled” (thrown toilet paper over) her house and garden on Saturday, and that while it had not been a major issue some remained stuck in a magnolia tree. Speaking to local TV station WBRC, Ms Crausewell explained how she and her son went out to clean up the rest of the mess and, thinking it might burn away the last remnants of paper, decided to set it on fire with a lighter.
