    TOPEKA- A 26-year-old Kansas man who climbed onto a roof to launch fireworks is dead after falling from atop his Topeka home.

    The Topeka Capital-Journal (http://bit.ly/29L99ap) reports Christen Locke fell from the roof after he was injured by a firework just after midnight Tuesday morning.

    Topeka police Lt. Jennifer Cross says the call was originally reported as a fall but an investigation revealed the fireworks accident.

    Locke was transported to a hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died.
