Truck catches fire after fireworks reignite

A truck caught fire after fireworks reignited late at night Saturday, July 1.

Lehigh Acres Fire Rescue reports a truck went up in flames after fireworks were not completely put out in a nearby trash can.

Officials warn even after fireworks have exploded, there is a chance they can still be live.

Fire Departments recommend using a metal container filled with water away from your property to dispose of all used fireworks.

Officials also say to ensure the water inside the container completely covers all fireworks.
