HONOLULU—A fifth person has died from injuries suffered during a massive explosion of illegal fireworks at a Honolulu home over New Year’s that prompted Hawaii authorities to reevaluate how they enforce the state’s fireworks laws, police said Tuesday.
The 29-year-old man was one of six people flown to a hospital in Arizona for treatment earlier this month because Hawaii’s only burn care facility hit capacity with other patients from the same blast.
