Josh Green, the governor of Hawaii, established a panel with the goal of reducing the importation of illegal pyrotechnics.
According to the Hawaii police, a guy passed away on Independence Day as a result of using fireworks.
On Tuesday evening, officers from the Big Island police department and firefighters raced to a parking lot after getting a call about an incident involving illegal fireworks. When they arrived, they found a guy lying on the ground with a head injury. According to the police, his name was Glen John Nakata, and he was from Kailua-Kona. He was 20 years old.
The Hawaii Police Department said that “bystanders stated they saw Nakata holding a fireworks launcher above his head when a firework went off,” which resulted in the young man being knocked to the ground.
