What caused the Notre Dame Fire? Inquiry calls blaze an accident, rules out arson
According to initial findings, the fire began shortly before 7 p.m. local time in the heart of a vast renovation project launched last summer. Le Figaro reported the inferno stripped away the cathedral's roof, which had been made from ancient timbers between the 12th and 14th centuries.
Firefighters have said the “difficult fire” was started in the attic of the iconic cathedral, spreading quickly and engulfing the spire, which collapsed under its own weight. The extent of the destruction, especially in this hard-to-reach area surrounded by scaffolding, was so great that material evidence showing the cause of the fire will not be easy to come by—and may already have been destroyed.

A man accused of setting fire to three predominantly black churches in a southern Louisiana parish was charged with hate crimes on Monday, adding to the three charges of arson that were filed last week.
The man, Holden Matthews, the 21-year-old son of a deputy sheriff, was arrested last week, accused of setting fire to the churches in St. Landry Parish, north of Lafayette.
The three fires destroyed churches that had existed for more than a century and had been the spiritual homes of generations of black families, evoking the long history of racist crimes committed in the Jim Crow South.
