Spark Ignites Fireworks In Worley Stand
Worley residents got a free impromptu fireworks display tonight after
a child ignited a firework that caused a fireworks stand to go up in
flames. The fire, which started about 8 p.m., burned two vehicles
and caused Highway 95 to shut down for a short time, authorities said. According
to a Coeur d’Alene Tribal spokesman, a minor was playing with fireworks
near Adeline’s Smoke Shop, near the old Worley Fire Station, when one
firework accidentally shot into the stand causing the building to ignite
along with the fireworks inside. The stand burned to the ground,
and two vehicles parked nearby were destroyed, authorities said. The
highway was shut down for safety reasons. No one was hurt/Spokesman-Review. (Illustrative SR file photo: Jesse Tinsley)
Question: Do you ever go to the Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation to buy illegal fireworks? And/or: How much do you spend on fireworks each year?
