Hundreds of injuries happen every year due to fireworks. In North Carolina any firework that leaves the ground is illegal, unless you are a licensed professional. Even the ones that don't leave the ground can be dangerous. That's why we ask you to exercise extra caution this 4th of July weekend if you are using fireworks, or better yet, just leave it to the professionals.
