The 4th of July Independence Day holiday is upon us, but this year celebrations will look very different. Many communities across the nation have canceled fireworks displays over restrictions on large gatherings due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, there is an alarming trend this year of amateurs setting off fireworks themselves from backyards and parks, at great risk to the public.
