DORA, Alabama - Fox 6 in Birmingham is reporting about a house fire in Dora today that started when a resident of the home tried to burn toilet paper that had been put in a tree as a prank over the weekend.

Cheryl Crausewell told the news station that kids had put toilet paper in her yard on Sonny Lane on Saturday. In an attempt to remove some toilet paper stuck in a tree, someone at the home lit it on fire today.

Wind blew the burning paper into the yard and set the grass on fire, which spread to the backyard where a grill's propane tank may have accelerated the flames.

Everyone at the home got out safely when the fire started around 2 p.m, according to the station, but the family lost its home of 12 years.
