Fire in Rancho Calaveras From Fireworks

     CalFire has reported  a vegetation fire in the 5000 block of Thornicroft Dr. in Rancho Calaveras  was caused by fireworks.
     Two units responded, Jenny Lind Fire and CalFire, who were able to extinguish the fire in about a 1/2 hour. No estimated dollar amount of loss was available.
    Late yesterday CalFire actually admitted on their website that so-called "safe and sane" fireworks also cause fires. A simple sparkler can ignite the dry grass.
