BENGALURU: A 64-year-old man succumbed to the burns he sustained in an accidental fire caused on Saturday by an LPG cylinder leak at his rented house in Gangondanahalli, Chandra Layout.
Anees woke up around 6am on Saturday and turned on the gas stove to make tea. But he forgot about it and the gas leaked. He lit a match to smoke a cigarette, igniting a huge blaze and sustaining burns. He breathed his last on Sunday.
