Pretty sure it was started by tear gas canisters or something like that fired in, and there were ample other examples of fires being started from them the government had.
The "something like that" was a chemical weapon that caused such violent contortions that a lot of the kids that were gassed had broken backs before the gas killed them.
ETA It was this part of that Rules of Engagement doc from the 90s that was the most heartbreaking/infuriating.
Why are we so focused on fires?

Tear gas usually involves copious amounts of snot and tears, not broken backs, but I like where you're generally going, you hippie.
