Kids playing with fireworks for the Fourth of July cost one family their home and three of their family pets.
Dare County's Fire Marshall Doug Remaley says they responded to a home on Beach Drive in Kitty Hawk around ten last night.
The home was completely engulfed when they arrived on the scene. Ramaley says, one person was inside, but got out unharmed, but their 2 cats and a dog perished in the flames.
We're told kids threw hot fireworks in garbage can, which then ignited, spreading to the home. No word on any charges.

People should be more empathetic to this situation. The family lost their family dog that they loved very much and the fire was an accident. Say a prayer for this family as they go through a very rough time mourning the death of a loved one.

We hope two of the pets got out. Remember that family and friends, along with the Lord's help, will return you to a happy home soon. Love you all Miskills!
