And the award for outstanding pyrotechnics goes to...
From NBC:
A neighbor’s security camera shows a group of people standing in a driveway on East 51 Street, setting off fireworks when a roman candle gets fired directly into a bedroom window. Those outside didn’t seem to notice, and continued to light more off for more than five minutes while flames grew inside the house, the fire department said.
The fire grew quickly, soon swallowing the whole back of the house and a car in the driveway. After the group finally saw the smoke and flames, one man could be seen on security footage trying fruitlessly to put out some of the flames using a garden hose.
Fire marshals arrested Damien Bend and charged the 36-year-old with arson after allegedly starting the inferno when he accidentally shot the illegal fireworks into his own home. The FDNY said that Bend only discovered the fire after going inside to get more fireworks to shoot off.

The winner,, play stupid games win stupid prizes. Also I like the way he totally blames other people and not his own family which is half the problem in the old neighborhoods of queens and Brooklyn.five families living in a two family home and that’s being generous
I needed the laugh.
It's trumps fault
Fireworks are American. If you hate fire works you HATE America
"Fireworks are American. If you hate fire works you HATE America", are you kidding me? fireworks are from China and are still made there

Karma’s a real bitch, baby.
In my 70+ years of living in the same house I have never heard so many fireworks for July Fourth and have been hearing them also in the middle of the night for the last couple months.
I thought people are out of work and we are in the middle of a recession but it appears some people have a lot of money to burn.
The Mayor said this year the NYPD was going to crack down on illegal fireworks...good job.
""The Mayor said this year the NYPD was going to crack down on illegal fireworks"".
Haa haa haa the NYPD aren't going to do anything for him. Especially go arresting white people angry at the liberal Mayor and City Council.
You have no means to process arrests anyway, people get a wrist band then sent home with a ticket
What your seeing and hearing is called rebellion.
I counted 8 fireworks shots per-second non stop into the wee hours of the morning, that's perhaps a record for NYC. From the Throgs neck bridge the whole city looked like it was moving in fireballs and colors. I haven't seen anything like that since 1975
The cops on my block had the best fireworks from some confiscations that were slated to be destroyed, they were lighting $200 600 shot cakes two at a time handing stuff out like Halloween candy. This saves the taxpayers money VS hauling all the stuff up to Rodmans Neck in the Bronx to be burned. Hell such an endeavor that would take the bomb truck 100,000 trips closing the bride each time.
The sad thing was a similar incident where someone shot fireworks into a neighbor’s open window and burned the house down.
We had fireworks in our small town of 800 people. A few individuals on 7/3 set theirs off, a few more on 7/4, plus two town displays that lasted all of about an hour that night. Then everyone went home, like normal people. No gunfire, even though we all have carry permits and about half carry. Almost everyone had the American Flag displayed. We had a parade in town and a town picnic. What a mess the Liberals have made of NYC. No Hope Capital of America.
