Published June 17, 2025

Dearborn Police Chief Issa Shahin with an urgent message about increased enforcement and parental responsibility during this July 4th weekend celebrations.

Remember that, according to the law, fireworks are only allowed between June 29 and July 5 from 11 a.m. to 11:45 p.m., and can only be discharged on your property, and the debris cannot land on neighboring properties.

Police will exercise zero tolerance, and anyone caught out in our streets dangerously discharging fireworks will be held responsible. Furthermore, juveniles found in violation of these rules will be brought to the police station, and parents may be ticketed as well.

Look out for more information on our firework safety plan in the coming days.
