It was a frightening scene at the home of Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill this week after a child playing with a cigarette lighter caused a fire. The incident occurred on Tuesday evening and resulted in significant damage to the property.
The Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded to the scene and were able to contain the blaze before it spread to other parts of the house. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident. However, the home sustained significant damage from the fire and smoke.
The cause of the fire was determined to be a child playing with a cigarette lighter. It appears that the child was able to get access to the lighter and accidentally started the fire. This is a reminder of how dangerous lighters can be when left in the wrong hands.
While this incident is certainly unfortunate, it serves as an important reminder for all parents to be mindful of the items that are left around their homes. Lighters, matches, and other flammable items should always be kept out of reach of children. Additionally, parents should also ensure that their children are aware of the dangers of playing with such items.
It’s unclear how much damage was done to Tyreek Hill’s home, but we hope that he and his family are able to recover quickly from this incident. We also hope that this serves as a reminder to all parents to be extra cautious when it comes to items that can cause fires in their homes.
