VANCOUVER, Wash. — Fire investigators say a dog inadvertently turned on a stove and started a fire that destroyed a house in Vancouver, Wash., early Saturday. Capt. David James told a newspaper that investigators believe the dog jumped up looking for food on the stove and turned the stove on, causing items on the stove to catch fire.

Firefighters arrived just before 1 a.m. to find heavy smoke and fire coming from the one-story home. James said the blaze damaged most of the house and its contents. The dog did not survive. James said the renter had left the dog alone in the house for the first time.

SAN DIEGO — A federal judge is set to determine whether the suspect in the Tucson shooting rampage that killed six people and wounded several others, including then-U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, should remain at a federal prison facility where officials are forcibly medicating him.U.S. District Court Judge Larry Burns said in his court filing that he is inclined to extend the suspect’s stay after learning the chief federal psychologist of Jared Lee Loughner believes the 23-year-old is still not competent to stand trial.
