Faulty electrical equipment is believed to be the cause of an accidental house fire on Guildford Street Tuesday morning, Winnipeg firefighters say.
Fire crews were called to the Deer Lodge-area home just after 7:30 a.m., and were able to get the blaze under control within a half hour.
Although the occupants and their dog were able to escape the one-and-a-half-storey home safely, fire crews say they found a pet snake dead in the house.
