It was supposed to be a beautiful Saturday at a pumpkin patch near Temple, Texas. Unfortunately, that was not the case.
More than 70 cars were destroyed after a fire broke out at the pumpkin patch, sending dozens of families running for their lives.
Kat Cabana, whose car was destroyed, told WFAA, “We went for family day on Saturday, go to the pumpkin patch, take cute little pictures. We saw black smoke, and we’re like, something legit is on fire.
You could hear glass exploding, what i assume was tires popping, exploding, people’s gas tanks exploding. The wind was taking the smoke and making it bigger and bigger. We’re like what are we going to do?”
Four firefighters and two civilians were treated at the farm for non-life-threatening heat related injuries.
While the exact cause of the pumpkin patch fire is undetermined, officials believe the culprit could be an "improperly discarded" cigarette.
