Improperly disposed of fireworks may have started a fire that destroyed a garage in Fond du Lac over the weekend. Nobody was injured in the fire that destroyed the detached garage and a couple of vehicles at a residence on County Highway K in Fond du Lac early Sunday morning. Jason Roberts with Fond du Lac Fire and Rescue says used fireworks had been placed in a garbage container prior to the fire starting. Roberts says always make sure the fireworks are completely cooled, and place them in a bucket of water before tossing them in a garbage can.
