Orange County firefighters quickly extinguished a blaze on a Dana Point hillside on Friday after a fireworks display started the small inferno. 

It started above the Dana Point Harbor, below some homes and businesses. Firefighters were able to contain the blaze to a quarter of an acre. 

"We urge the community to help keep everyone safe. While the work of our firefighters and @OCSheriff deputies prevented injuries and saved property today, fireworks can have tragic consequences," the Orange County Fire Authority posted on Instagram.
