 They said a firework that fell in their backyard last week destroyed their home. That's right. They say the fireworks sparked a fire that ultimately destroyed their home in the city of Palmdale, California. An elderly woman and her two daughters were able to get out of the home safely. For now, they are living in a trailer on the property as they await responses from the city and their home insurance carrier. But the family says an errant firework caused home to burn down. It wasn't their firework either from a possible neighbor.
