Did you guys listen to the audio feed posted earlier in the thread? They're clearly outlining the process of starting the fire.
We'll never know for sure what went down, but as I said before they clearly started the fire. By an account of one of the officers, Dorner tried to exit the cabin after the fire was started and was "pushed back in", I don't know if we ever got clarification on what he meant by that, but it's very possible he was trying to surrender and they weren't having it.
Of course we won't know any of that for sure because they forced all news choppers to leave the area.
