(KLZA)--It's now legal to shoot fireworks in Nebraska until midnight on the 4th of July.
The Falls City Volunteer Fire Department reminds everyone to be aware of the dangers when setting off fireworks.
If you are going to be shooting off fireworks, make sure there is a fire extinguisher, hose or bucket of water nearby for emergencies. An adult should always be present when kids are shooting fireworks.
In 2015, Nebraska fire departments reported 49 fires directly attributed to fireworks with damages from those fires coming to more than $60,000.
