HOLLYWOOD, CA: Los Angeles firefighters responded to a fire at Ned “Carlos Mencia” Holmes’ apartment Wednesday evening.

According to the report, the L.A.F.D. received a call at approximately 4:00 P.M. from a neighbor.

Mencia, known for stealing jokes and his famous Fruit by the Foot fetish, reportedly started the fire while trying to make popcorn. The comedian allegedly put the bag of Pop Secret 93% Less Fat in his microwave for an astounding 15 minutes before noticing smoke.

The fire progressed after Mencia attempted to douse it with water, starting an even larger electrical fire.

“He’s just so damn stupid,” said Lt. Rusty Shackleford, fire investigator for Los Angeles County. “I actually thought about ignoring the alarm after I saw whose address it was.”
