He also said investigators have been searching social media looking for illegal dealers, then send in undercover agents. We made contact with them, tell them we want to purchase fireworks, meet them at a location and make the arrests and seize the fireworks, he explained.
Fireworks have already sparked several fires throughout the county including one that set an Antioch apartment complex on fire destroying the homes of multiple families. My fear is my house is going to be lit on fire, said Antioch resident Edward Perez.
Perez hears and sees fireworks going off in his neighborhood all the time. At a park just up the street from his Antioch home, NBC Bay Area found plenty of proof of that. He’s relieved fire investigators are trying to stop it.

Inside The Most Intimate Musical Performances, Now Taking Place At The Brooklyn Navy Yard View all 19
As New Yorkers start to imagine what live events might look like in a post-pandemic world, the Brooklyn Academy of Music is offering one vision of how socially-distanced music can still bring people together. The 1:1 CONCERTS, which took place this past weekend and will happen again next weekend, offer one person at a time the chance to experience an intimate 10-minute program performed by a single musician, across a number of wholly unique spaces in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
Between the isolation and the cavernous surroundings, it s a surreal and somewhat overwhelming experience. At dress rehearsals last Friday, my guide Sarah navigated me through two very large warehouses and two very scenic rooftops to peer in on four concerts. Being led through the mostly empty industrial landscape made it all feel like some top secret experimental program.

Jen Shyu, Living s a Gift | Part 3: My Unsolved Regrets
Zero Grasses: Ritual For the Losses is the latest artistic statement from Jen Shyu, a vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and composer with the blazing heart of an artist and the curious mind of an ethnographer. It seems unlikely that we ll encounter another album this year with a more striking balance of formal invention and personal revelation.
One of the losses ritualized in Shyu s album title refers to her father, who died in 2019. Another is poignantly realized on Lament for Breonna Taylor. And on a suite in four parts titled Living s a Gift, Shyu incorporates lyrics composed by middle school students, describing the surreal privations of their pandemic experience.
