Police issue stern warning for public on New Year’s Eve
Ahead of New Year’s Eve law-enforcement has a word of warning for those who plan to celebrate.
It is illegal to shoot off guns or fireworks as part of your celebration. Gunshots are more than a worry, they can be deadly and you can be arrested if police catch you.
Police also want to remind partygoers it’s illegal to drink and drive and you don’t want to start off the new year with a DUI so make other arrangements.
