PEOPLE WHO CAUSE DAMAGE WITH FIREWORKS MAY BE 
RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAYMENT

If a person is playing with fireworks and causes damage to someone else's property, they may be responsible for paying for that damage according to insurance agents. In addition, if the fireworks are illegal, that person could be fined or even jailed. Fire officials urge the public to practice extreme caution when playing with fireworks on the Fourth of July. The dry conditions and unusually high amount of vegetation make it one of the most hazardous conditions seen here in Southern Nevada in several years.
