The incident happened on May 31 in northern Alberta. A device, which was supposed to release blue or pink powder, indicating the baby’s gender, inadvertently started hell, Global News reported.

The flames reached about an acre, or about three-quarters of a football field, before firefighters were able to extinguish the flames.
Travis Fairweather, a wildfire information officer at Alberta Wildfire, said the couple responsible were fined the equivalent of $ 500.
