COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

An accidental electrical fire caused about $100,000 in damage late Monday at a southeast Columbia home.

The fire at 2707 Rain Tree Court started with faulty electrical wiring in a shed next to the home, the Columbia Fire Department said in a news release Tuesday.

A pickup truck inside the shed was in flames when firefighters arrived, the fire department said. An ABC 17 News reporter said the fire filled the neighborhood with smoke.
