VIDEO: Lit firework tossed into convertible by passing vehicle on July 4
Colin Kirby says he’s grateful to be alive after someone tossed a lit firework into his convertible on July 4. He suffered minor burns. Nashville Police are looking for three suspects.
The video shows a black convertible stopped at a traffic light on a busy city street at night. The danger is that the car repeatedly emits large bursts of fireworks from its exhaust pipes. There is no visible safety equipment being used, and it's unclear if a professional is operating the fireworks. There are several pedestrians within close proximity to the car who could be injured. While the aftermath of the fireworks is not shown, the potential aftermath could include severe burns, injuries from exploding debris, and potential fires.
