Guanajuato Fire Investigation Results

We received an update about the explosion and fire at the AirBNB in Guanajuato.  The owner sent us a copy of the official investigation report.

The explosion was not caused by a gas leak.  There was a cell phone left charging overnight.  The phone’s battery overheated and exploded, starting the flammable furniture and curtains on fire.  Then someone opened a door causing a rush of oxygen and a backdraft (which was the big boom we heard).
