Handling a gas cylinder?
The property in Hart (district of Graz-Umgebung) south-east of Graz is an older detached house. The man, a former tax consultant, is said to have been alone in the house and may have been handling a gas cylinder. Neighbors had heard a muffled bang at around five o'clock in the morning and called the emergency services.
According to a police spokesperson, it is not currently assumed that the fire was caused by someone else, but this will have to be investigated. The Styrian State Office of Criminal Investigation has taken over the further investigation.
