A B.C. man is suing Walmart claiming a heater purchased at the retail giant caused a fire that burned his house down. The lawsuit filed by Gyula Kiss alleges all his personal items were destroyed in the January 4th, blaze of 2012 in Coldstream. Kiss claims the heater was not appropriate for use in a home and not durable for the period of time it would be put to use. The legal action alleges Walmart and the heater's maker Fusion Canada had a duty to warn of any defects and to ensure the heater was reasonably inspected before its sale. He's suing for costs to investigate the fire, to replace his home and destroyed personal effects, and hardship. (The Canadian Press)

The first I heard about me suing Walmart was from CHBC News. If Walmart is being sued it is by the insurance company which may have started action without informing me. News reports can be somewhat deceptive.
