HAVELOCK, U.S.A. - Police say a man is dead after he accidentally drank from a jar of gasoline and then smoked a cigarette.
Havelock police received an emergency call about 9.55pm local time on Monday after 43-year-old Gary Allen Banning set himself on fire. Banning was transported to UNC Burn Center in Chapel Hill, where he died on early Tuesday morning.
City spokeswoman Diane Miller said investigators believe Banning was at a friend's apartment when he apparently mistook a jar of gasoline sitting by the kitchen sink for a drink. After taking a gulp, he spit the oil out and got some on his clothes.
Sometime later, investigators say Banning went outside to smoke a cigarette and burst into flames.
Havelock police and the city fire marshal are continuing their investigation.

You did a great job!! I think using tile to make a Kitchen countertops is the way to go - my husband and I are in the business of remodeling homes and we choose to go this route, instead of buying one solid piece of granite or marble.
