Wayne Fire Chief Phil Monahan is urging all area residents to use caution when using fireworks in the coming days.
The fire department responded to a call on Thursday (June 24) at the Boy Scout Park, also known as Roosevelt Park, near the Logan Creek. A tree was on fire. It was quickly extinguished and no damage ocurred to any buildings. No one was injured. However, Monahan says the cause was use of fireworks in the area.
"We expect hot, dry conditions in the coming week, everyone should be very careful when when using fireworks," Monahan said.
The Wayne Fire Department also responded to an alarm at Wayne State College that same evening.
