A STRAY firework from a display at the Needles Pleasure Park at Alum Bay is thought to have been responsible for a fire which broke out in a cornfield near the park last night (Thursday).
Around 150m by 500m of corn caught alight at 9.43pm and was tackled by firefighters from Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport.
Emergency crews brought the blaze under control just after midnight.
