Danbury official warns of illegal fireworks dangers

There have been a lot of nuisance calls in Danbury about people illegally setting of fireworks.  Mayor Mark Boughton is reminding everyone that fireworks are not allowed by law in Connecticut for use by non-professional, non-licensed users. Sparklers and fountains, which technically are not considered fireworks, may be sold.  Children under age 16 can not buy or use sparklers or fountains.  Boughton says aerial and explosive fireworks are extremely dangerous because the hot debris can land anywhere causing injuries and fires.  The state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection issued a warning of increased forest fire danger due to below-average rainfall.
