One person died and three firefighters were wounded after a brush fire approached a structure containing commercial-grade fireworks in North Carolina.
Firefighters arrived and attempted to extinguish the large fire when an explosion occurred Friday, Lenoir County Emergency Services said in a press release.
A civilian who was fighting the blaze before firefighters arrived was fatally injured and pronounced dead at the scene, the release said.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
