Vermont fire investigators say a laptop computer left unattended on a bed likely caused a blaze that damaged a Middlebury condominium.
No one was injured in the 9 a.m. Monday fire at the Otterside Court Condominiums.
Fire damage was limited to the upstairs, but the entire unit suffered smoke and water damage.
The fire was ruled accidental.
