As the Fourth of July approaches, the Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD) is stepping up its illegal fireworks enforcement.

“It’s a problem for us every year ... beginning June through the holiday,” Santa Ana police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna told The Epoch Times. “The city sells legal fireworks which you can use; it’s the illegal fireworks that are the problem.”
