Ja’Keil Norris, 5, runs away from the firetruck hose while carrying two water balloons Saturday during Beat the Heat Water Day.

The event featured kids-versus-cops water balloon battles along with blasts of water from the deck gun of a fire truck, which was advertised as “the world’s largest sprinkler”. Firefighters atop the firetruck would spray water over the children about every ten minutes.
