A fireworks prank that resulted in a dumpster fire in Scott is raising concerns for firefighters.
Tuesday evening, firefighters responded to Heidi Circle after an unknown person set off fireworks in a dumpster, which caught the contents on fire.
It is not uncommon for firefighters to encounter numerous misuse of fireworks either by fireworks being tossed in dumpsters or trash cans ( to amplify the sound) or stray fireworks randomly shot, which can bust out windows and enter buildings or vehicles causing fire, authorities said.
Firefighters remind everyone to stay safe and misuse consumer fireworks.
