Fireworks

Summer is here as indicated by the temperatures outside and the buzz in the air or people going to the beach and boardwalk, but it also brings about celebration which is good but there are some safety rules you need to follow.

New Jersey State Police were at Brick Township Public Works to assist township police and detonate an explosive found at a vacant home Friday morning.

Ground-based sparklers, party poppers and snappers may now be legal in the Garden State but that doesn't mean safety goes out the window this summer.

New Jersey is one of just three states that completely ban the sale and use of any fireworks. The Garden State would join the majority, however, with a proposed law that received a unanimous green light from a state Senate panel Monday.

Seaside Heights Mayor Tony Vaz understands a cancellation may upset some visitors, particularly those who came just for the show, but he doesn't want a repeat of what happened in 1984.

Fourth of July celebrations (some on other dates) will be held throughout New Jersey. Take in a few and watch the skies light up with fireworks at each!
