“我就點著玩，沒想到火躥得這麼快……”4月11日13時許，北京市通州區台湖鎮口子村蕭太后河旁突發雜草火情，過火面積約80平方米。

After investigation, it was actually two young people who lit the willow catkins during the break. At present, Lin Moumou, the offender who ignited the fire, was sentenced to 10 days of administrative detention by the public security organs.

　　11日13時17分，通州消防接報台湖鎮雜草火情。消防救援人員抵達時，林某某和肖某某兩名年輕男子在場，經詢問，兩人堅稱“火不是他們點的”。

The fire investigators and the police of the police station jointly investigated, and through interviews with surrounding witnesses, they finally locked on 18-year-old Lin Moumou.

Lin Moumou used a lighter to ignite the accumulation of willow catkins, and the sparks instantly ignited the dead grass, and the fire spread to the entire area within 30 seconds.

Faced with eyewitness testimony and videos, the two had to admit that they were "bored and curious" and caused the accident. Although the fire did not cause a bigger accident, Lin Moumou still had to be administratively punished. At present, the offender Lin Moumou was sentenced to 10 days of administrative detention by the public security organs, and Xiao Moumou was criticized and educated for failing to stop dangerous behaviors in time.

Tongzhou Fire reminds that the willow catkins seem to be soft, but they are actually "flowing powder kegs"! The fire test showed that the poplar catkins burst into fireball after 10 seconds when they came into contact with the lighter flame; After 0 seconds, the flames spread with the flying floc, and the weeds within 0 square meters were instantly ignited.

　　根據《中華人民共和國消防法》的規定，過失引發火災尚不構成犯罪的，可處十日以上十五日以下拘留；若造成重大損失，將追究刑事責任。相關記錄將影響個人徵信、就業等社會活動。

Tongzhou fire tips: about 40% of weed fires in spring are caused by willow catkins being ignited. Flobustibles such as catkins, dead grass, and woods are strictly forbidden to come into contact with open flames. In the area where poplar catkins gather, water should be sprinkled and humidified in time, and open flames should not be used to ignite, especially in windy weather, open flames may cause the fire to spread instantly. A fluke may engulf the entire forest area, seriously threatening the safety of public life and property.
