A large fire in a house in Reykjavík earlier this week probably started where cannabis was grown, according to preliminary research.
The fire in Seljahverfi started early on Monday morning. The only occupant of the house at that time was the owner of the house, who was taken to hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation and later released. He is now to encourage people to buy smoke detectors.
No one has been arrested in connection with the fire, although one has been questioned. The police have refused to comment further on the case, Indicates, but believes that the fire is most likely caused by cannabis plants grown in the property.
Many firefighters attended the fire, which lasted more than 13 hours. The house is badly damaged and will be demolished.
