What the What?

What the What?

In Center Line, Michigan, a man with an apparent case of arachnophobia caused a fire at a suburban Detroit gas pump by putting a lighter to what he says was a spider near his fuel door. The guy escaped injury and his vehicle suffered little damage, but the gas pump was destroyed. A clerk shut off the pump from indoors and called the fire department. The motorist can be heard on the surveillance video at the Center Line station asking: "Is that a spider in there?" The video then shows flames erupting along the car's side, the pump and the pavement. The man darts to safety and later uses a fire extinguisher to put out the flames. A spider is not seen. The clerk says he apologized the next day. (myway.com)
