According to investigators, the property's owner had bought fireworks in another state and was storing the fireworks on the 2500 block of South Little Creek Road east of Dover. State Fire Marshal deputies and troopers from the Delaware State Police Explosive Ordnance Disposal unit said they confiscated nearly 40 boxes of consumer fireworks from the home without incident.

The investigation is ongoing and authorities said arrests are expected once investigation is complete.
