Officials Warn About Fireworks Dangers

As Independence Day approaches, federal agents are working to educate the public on the dangers of illegal explosives, like this handcrafted tennis ball bomb, which busted a hole in a thick sheet of press board. The demonstration in Clackamas included detonation of a homemade "sparkler bomb" which took off the hand of a mannequin and a professional-grade firework that busted another mannequin to pieces. Explosives agent Brennan Phillips says all suspicious fireworks should be reported to law enforcement.
