Given the rampant illegal fireworks in Santa Ana sounding off in the past months, this reminder seems to be the extent of SAPD’s enforcement effort. Let’s do some real reporting and ask how many arrests SAPD made last year for illegal fireworks.
We totally agree. Every year they harp about this and we don’t see any arrests.
