Firework Safety Reminders from Lombard Fire
The Lombard Fire Department is reminding residents that not only are fireworks illegal - they're also extremely dangerous. From June 21 - July 21, 2019, an estimated 10,000 fireworks-related injuries were reported, with 7,300 requiring treatment in hospital emergency departments. The discharging of fireworks including firecrackers, bottle rockets, and Roman candles is not allowed in Illinois under state regulations, and is a violation of state law and Village ordinances. Novelty fireworks, such as snakes, sparklers, and party-poppers are not regulated by the state. Residents are strongly reminded to take extra precautions to help stay safe this Fourth of July.
