An Unwelcome Incident

Hank and his wife Stacy were enjoying a date night at the theater. Their baby girl, Teresa, was at home soundly asleep in her bed while being watched by their trusted neighbor and babysitter, Rebecca.

Thinking to have a midnight stack, Rebecca got up to heat a burrito. However, she didn’t notice that she had set the timer up to 15 minutes and the burrito was still packed with aluminum foil!! Because of this mistake, the microwave quickly became overheated, creating sparks.

As smoke began to come out of the microwave, Amaryllo’s camera spotted the fire, notified Amaryllo’s 24/7 Professional Monitoring agents, allowing them to respond to the alert. The agents quickly contacted Hank of the situation whom immediately asked the agents to call authorities to rescue.
