Frat Boy Tries To Put Out Electrical Fire By “Pissing On It,” (It Didn’t Work)

HOUSTON -- Eight young men safely escaped their burning frat house at the University of Houston late Sunday.

The Houston Fire Department was called to Southmore at Delano around 10:30 p.m. where the two-story home's attic was found burning.

The students at the Kappa Alpha house said they smelled something funny when they turned on the heater earlier in the evening so they didn't use it much. But someone turned it back on later in the evening, and it apparently caught fire.

"We were just hanging out, playing it cool and we saw like a fire and stuff. Smoke was coming out. And we're all like, what are we supposed to do with this fire? And we all just took off," said Dylan Koops, one of the residents.

One of the students told KHOU 11 he tried to get a bucket of water to put on the fire, but the entire attic was quickly engulfed.

No injuries were reported, and most of the damage was limited to the attic area.
