WORCESTER, Mass. (WWLP) - A fireworks accident in Worcester Sunday night sent a baby to the hospital.

The 11-month-old girl who was in a baby stroller was injured when someone set off fireworks after the city display at Cristoforo Colombo Park was over.

A group of teens reportedly were setting off illegal fireworks at a baseball field when one flew into the carriage.

The child inside suffered first and second degree burns.

She was transported to a hospital by paramedics.

Police are looking for the teens responsible.

The child is expected to be okay.
