Investigators have determined that Friday morning's fatal car fire in Cumberland County was accidental, started by static electricity.
The coroner said Luther Byers, 19, of Camp Hill, died from inhaling super-heated gases from the flash fire.
Police said surveillance video shows Byers in the blue Toyota Corolla entering the BP station in Lower Allen Township at about 3 a.m. Friday, then getting out to fill his tank.
Police Chief Frank Williamson said investigators know that Byers was not smoking and was not using a cell phone, but they remain unsure of what went wrong.
"The vapors from gasoline are what burned. The vapors are given off every time you fuel your vehicle. Somewhere along the line as he was fueling the vehicle there was a static electric discharge that ignited the vapors," Williamson said.
These are some real good videos i wont be using my phone again at the gas stations thats for sure, Does anyone know why phones make fires though?

SAN ANTONIO - An 18-wheeler being loaded with fuel at a San Antonio refinery exploded Wednesday, setting off a chain reaction of smaller explosions and sending a towering plume of thick black smoke over the city's southeast side. One person was critically burned, and the driver of the exploding truck remained missing.
