Freedom 4th Fireworks Start Small Fire

Thousands turned out at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta for the Fourth of July Tuesday to hear headliner Clint Black at the City’s Freedom 4th event. And most stayed for the fireworks display later. But a brush fire was sparked by one of the fireworks toward the end of the show.

Crews quickly had the fire out but not before it had burned a 20 foot by 20 foot area.
