Everything was going perfectly fine.

Adults and children were both sitting on the lawn as fireworks were being set-off near the sidewalk.

Unfortunately, there was a malfunction with one of the fireworks which actually ended up shooting off towards the driveway.

A child was seemingly struck by a spark of the firework, which startled them.

A short moment after that, an adult realized that a soon-to-explode firework had traveled under a vehicle and was smoking tremendously.

This is when adults ran to grab the children and bring them to safety.
