Debate Heats Up Over Beach Fire Pit Ban

Coastal residents made their case Thursday for banning beach fire pits, including feeling sick from the smoke. Air quality officials want all 840 fire pits on Los Angeles and Orange County beaches to be removed, because they say the smoke from the pits adds pollution to the basin. However, many beach-goers call the fire pits a summer staple. Vikki Vargas reports from Huntington Beach for the NBC4 News at 5 p.m. on March 28, 2013.
