Federal officials are warning Independence Day celebrants in three states of a massive recall of almost 40,000 fireworks because they’re too powerful — citing one Ohio youngster who lost a hand after setting off a faulty firework.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled products from: Grandma’s Fireworks in Indiana; GS Fireworks and Patriot Pyrotechnics/Bill’s Fireworks, both in Michigan; and Keystone Fireworks in Pennsylvania.
These recalled fireworks are overloaded with pyrotechnics intended to produce a booming sound, WebMD reported.
