ATF, local police enforce fireworks laws

ATF, local police enforce fireworks laws The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) last week issued a press release encouraging the public across the nation to be safe and responsible during Fourth of July celebrations. Meanwhile, law enforcement officers in many states have been stepping up enforcement of fireworks restrictions in an effort to prevent fires and bodily injury.

"To better ensure a safe and happy Fourth of July, ATF encourages the public to enjoy the fireworks shows conducted by the licensed professionals," ATF Acting Director Michael Sullivan said in a written statement.
