Fireworks Up…..Fireworks Down

Comments Off

PYROMANIACS WILL BE BACK SOON.  That’s the promise made yesterday by the owner of the quaintly-named fireworks shop in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  Wednesday morning the shop burned down (see the Firegeezer video report HERE) in a spectacular blaze that featured sky rockets shooting out of the store at the firefighters as they worked successfully to keep it from spreading to neighboring buildings.

Gary Graham, 30, the owner started the business 10 years ago and built it on a lifelong dream and love of fireworks.  “What’s not to love? You have color and noise. What more could you ask for. Sky painting is what I call it,” Graham told a reporter.  He also said yesterday that he will begin to rebuild his business immediately.  But he thinks it will be in a different location where there is a building already available that he can move into.

WANE-TV Ch. 14 has this video interview with Graham and Fire Chief Pete Kelly who tells that arson has been ruled out as a cause:
