India, Sept. 30 -- A Texas Representative Tony Gonzales's staff member who was burned to death lit herself on fire with gasoline in her garden, as per firefighters. However, her family claims that it was an accident.

Responding firemen told the Uvalde Leader News that Regina Santos-Aviles "doused herself in gasoline" at Uvalde on September 13, NY POST reported.

She "was ignited in flames," according to the report, and the blazing gasoline cans were extinguished when firemen arrived.

Officials did not specify whether she intentionally set off the fatal flames, but the Uvalde Police Department said it does not believe anybody else played a role in her death or there was foul play.

Santos-Aviles was discovered alive in front of her porch...
