Good morning, Sports fans! Davey Mac here with a fresh Sports Report for ya! We’ve got news on the baseball front…basketball and hockey scores…plus a preview of the final week of the NFL regular season. But first…
According to an article from Yahoo, Miami Dolphins superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill’s major house fire was caused by a child playing with a cigarette lighter in one of the bedrooms.
Authorities say that the fire was an accident and that fortunately no injuries were caused. Though Hill’s house has suffered major damages. He received tons of support from his teammates and coaches publicly yesterday as he’s going through this difficult experience.
