LA SALLE, Colo. - Firefighters say a La Salle man trying to kill a wasps' next with a fire torch fueled with Ether caused a blaze that burned down his camper trailer.

Firefighters say they put out the blaze soon after it was reported Sunday night and prevented it from spreading to a shed nearby. Firefighter Ben Hulsey says a damage for the fire was not immediately available.

The Greeley Tribune reports valuables in the trailer included tools, auto parts and antiques.
