How was Peiper's house set on fire?

  • Gas leak

  • Electrical fault

  • Arson

  • Lightning strike

Answer

Arson is the crime of deliberately setting fire to something. In this case, the house of Peiper was set on fire by arsonists. This was likely done in retaliation for Peiper's role in the Malmedy massacre. The arsonists were never caught, but the incident is a reminder of the ongoing controversy surrounding Peiper's actions during the war.
