Original Note:
Authorities conducted an investigation after the blaze, interviewing around 40 workers and reviewing the cathedral’s security cameras. Leading theories for the cause of the fire are faulty wiring or a discarded cigarette. There is no evidence to support rumours of arson. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-france-notre-dame-idUSKCN1TR20X https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2019/apr/19/notre-dame-fire-cause-may-have-been-electrical-official
