Introduction

I am writing this letter to report the fire incident that happened yesterday in our company. I am the one who found the fire in the microwave and extinguished it. It was caused by Bob Smith who kept the popcorn in the oven overtime. The incident did not cause death, but two of our colleagues were reported to have difficulty in breathing and were sent to General Hospital by ambulance.
What Happened
At 2:34 p.m. yesterday, when I walked into the shared break area of our company, I found a fire inside the microwave. However, the microwave was still working with 14 minutes left. I was deeply frightened. I quickly turned off the microwave and caught a fire extinguisher on the wall to put out the flames. The smokes dissipated and the charred remained in the microwave with its smell enveloping the building. After that, I found a bag of popcorn inside the microwave, with its open box on the counter next to the microwave. It was a Generic Brand popcorn. 
Fire fighters was called by our employee at 2:38 and they arrived five minutes later from the fire station which was one block away from our company. Nothing important was destroyed. Nobody was seriously hurt by the fire except Alan Martin and Dennis Alcott from our Programming Department. Given by the smokes, they two had difficulty in breathing and were sent to General hospital by ambulance at 3:00 p.m..
Why Happened
Person who should bear the main responsibility is Bob Smith from the Accounting Department of our company. It is well known that he has a habit to make popcorn when he is having breaks at 2:25 p.m.. His carelessness resulted in the incident yesterday. The Generic Brand popcorn was recommended to have a two minutes’ popping time. Bob Smith thought that he had set the timer for two minutes, so he went outside to smoke a cigarette when the popcorn was popped. However, in fact, he had set the timer wrongly. When I saw the fire, it was 2:34 p.m. according to the clock on the wall and there were still 14 minutes left for the microwave to work. Therefore, obviously it was the additional time set by Bob Smith caused the popcorn to explode and catch fire. 
Conclusion

I write this fire incident record to state the whole process of the event. Given by Bob Smith’s carelessness, the pop caught fire and exploded. Though there is no heavy loss, our two employees got hurt and all stuff was frightened. Furthermore, the smell of the charred also affect other people in our building. Therefore, through this incident, all people in our company should learn to be careful. I also strongly recommend some new rules to be established. For example, when using electrical appliances such as microwave, users should stay to make sure the appliance works normally and safely. If something unsafe happens, the responsible person should be punished. Creating a safe working environment needs the efforts of all people. Therefore, all of us should take the responsibility.
