MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A crystal ball is apparently to blame for a house fire in the Wisconsin Dells area.
The Delton Fire Department says the fire caused roughly $250,000 worth of damage.
Investigators say light reflected off a glass ball and ignited the fire on a nearby couch.
Delton officials say the incident serves as a reminder to keep items like crystals and bottles away from direct sunlight, especially if flammable items are close.
Thankfully, no one was hurt.
