Omio officers carefully request caution with fireworks, alcohol and cannabis on July 4th

The agencies in Ohio remind the residents of being safe during the independence day – especially for fireworks, alcohol and public cannabis.

The Ohioans are preparing for the celebrations on July 4, and the state fire brigade marshal Kevin Reardon warns of risky behavior. The last year recorded 135 fireworks incidents and 32 structural fires, which caused $ 760,000. Fireworks, including sparklers that burn at 2,000 ° F, represent serious security risks. Civil servants recommend checking local regulations, wearing protective glasses, keeping water nearby and never using fireworks while it is impaired.

Alcohol is also under control. The division of spiritual control emphasizes the responsible drink: stay hydrated, eat and plan a sober journey home to avoid breakdowns.

The division of cannabis control in Ohio adds a warning about the use of public marijuana. Non-medical cannabis in public is a little offense. Smoking or vaping indoors or near minors can lead to punishments. Superintendent Jim Canepa reminds the adults of taking into account judgment and keeping children away from children.

Local communities such as Bellefontaine have additional steps to ensure security. Your chief of police reminds the residents that the fireworks and use without licensed exhibitors are prohibited in the city limits. Alcohol must be treated responsibly, and fireworks should be reported via non-emergency channels that reserve 911 for real emergencies.
