(Sioux City, IA) — Most cities have restrictions on the use of fireworks or outright bans.
That doesn’t always stop people from setting them off. Sioux City Police Sergeant Jeremy McClure says the sounds of bottle rockets and other fireworks are already being heard there, even though they are not yet legal to shoot off. He says complaints are down pretty significantly from 2020 when they saw more than 600 complaints in June.
He says there have been no citations issued — as officers have to answer other calls first.
