Dangerous fireworks stolen in Bunnell

2017-124 Fireworks Danger Greater Than Expected

BUNNELL – A fireworks business, Big Nic’s Boom Boom Sticks at 2121 N State Street in Bunnell, was burglarized and dozens of extremely dangerous and altered fireworks are missing.

The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) discovered the burglary while following up on the incident involving two children lighting fireworks that exploded on them at Dr. Carver Park in Bunnell on Sunday, July 9.

The FCSO and the Bunnell Police Department are asking anyone who may be in possession of these fireworks to turn them in to any Law Enforcement or Fire Department immediately, no questions asked.

“The primary concern is the safety of the community and children and to get these dangerous and altered fireworks off of the streets,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “We do not want to see anyone else get hurt. These stolen fireworks have already caused permanent disfigurement to two small children and one child’s life has been changed forever.”

If you have information regarding the fireworks burglary, please contact FCSO at 386-313-4911 or call Crimestoppers at 1-888-277-TIPS (8477). You may be eligible for a reward up to $1,000.00 information leading to an arrest.
