Another safety point...
They're saying initially that it looks like a halogen lamp may have been the cause of the fire.
Those things can be very dangerous because the element burns much hotter than a standard light bulb.
They advise to never leave one burning unattended.
If this one were too close to curtains, or was knocked over, or even if the bulb exploded (which can happen sometimes), it cold ignite pretty much anything close by.
