(A warning from two cities)…Mexicali and Brawley.
Both cities are warning residents against the use of illegal fireworks. Mexicali is also warning against illegal bon-fires, in trash cans, and the burning of old tires. The border city says the fireworks and fires contribute greatly to local air pollution. In Brawley officials say anybody using illegal fireworks should be reported to the local police department. They would face a fine or even arrest.
