The senior citizen tried to extinguish the fire, but was unable to do so. The flames then spread to the hedge and the neighbor's car.
Fighting the flames with a garden hose
"Residents were able to contain the fire to some extent with a garden hose before the fire department was able to extinguish the fire completely a short time later," said the police.
