Fireworks start grass fire in Douglas

Firefighters were called to a large grass fire started by a firework at the weekend.

Crews were called to Marine Drive after reports of a grass fire at around 11pm on Saturday night.

The Fire and Rescue Service spent an hour and a half fighting the blaze and damping down embers.

They say the blaze was entirely preventable and are appealing to people to use fireworks sensibly.
