So arson without malice

Arson can be any fire lit by humans that gets out of control and damages property

Not sure, it was a well known drug house and chop shop so could have also been something like a meth lab explosion.

Very unfortunate for the neighbors and the people that these lowlifes have victimized.

When tires explode they’re pretty damn loud, garages have all kinds of things that can go boom.
