Cigarette listed as cause of Lewiston Road fire

By Philip Anselmo

The Genesee County Sheriff's Office released an official statement last night citing a smoldering cigarette as the "probable" cause of the house fire at Lewiston Road Friday that claimed the life of 17-year-old Erik Mooney. WBTA reports that Mooney's mother, July Clark,  "told investigators she had been smoking in the enclosed porch where the fire was believed to have started."
