A series of photos showing clean-up workers joke around on charred properties in Paradise, California, provoked wide criticism on social media, resulting in the company firing three employees over the incident last weekend.

The photos were posted on Facebook by a crane operator named Rob Freestone, who was from the Bigge Crane and Rigging Co., a crane sales and rental company. Freestone was assigned to perform clean-up duties in the burned area due to the Camp Fire, according to the Daily Mail.
