CHAFFEE COUNTY, Colo. (KRDO) -- Chaffee County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) reports that they have already had a small fire caused by a firework.
According to the CCSO, the fire occurred on a backcountry road, allegedly caused by a firework thrown out of a moving vehicle's window this evening, June 3.
CCSO urges others to use extreme caution this weekend while celebrating, reminding others that throwing fireworks out of a moving vehicle in dry vegetation is "just foolish," says CCSO.
