“We want to admonish everybody that fireworks are illegal in the city of Baltimore, all fireworks,” said Harrison, including sparklers.
Police Commissioner Harrison said officers will be on the lookout for people violating the law.
“Secondly, shooting firearms in the air is not only illegal, it is extremely dangerous,” added Harrison. “Bullets come down with the same velocity as they do when they go off. It can harm and kill people so absolutely do not do it.”
The city’s New Year’s Eve fireworks have been canceled this year.
