Fireworks Ignite Ocean City Dunes

A wildfire erupted on Ocean City’s sand dunes near 116th and 117th streets, sparked by illegal fireworks—thankfully contained before it reached nearby hotels or shops. Firefighters responded quickly, but the blaze serves as a sobering warning: dry dunes + fireworks = dangerous fire risk. Officials are investigating, reiterating that fireworks are strictly banned in Ocean City—with hefty fines for violations. This near-miss underscores the critical need for fire safety during busy seasons, especially when careless acts can threaten communities and property.
