I wasn't the only one who heard them, but it appears to be nothing. If those were simple fireworks, I'm impressed and people any closer couldn't have been very happy. Sorry for the false news I guess.
    Ha! Probably just some kids having fun. I grew up on 64th and Independence and went to Fitzmorris Elementary adjacent to the park. We regularly blew off M-80s, Cherry Bombs and Black Cats in our yards and the street. Later, black powder land mines and rockets. Thinking back I'm amazed by the tolerance of our good neighbors.

    And right there in our suburban neighborhood we shot our .22 rifles our backyards and in our basements. Nobody got hurt, nobody complained, and nobody went to jail. It was all part of growing up in the 1960's.

    As of this I, nothing nefarious reported on local news.

    Sticking to my fireworks theory.

    Wasn't me. I didn't do it. Nobody saw me do it. You can't prove anything.

    Is there any kind of communication center there affiliated with news networks? Apparently they don't like to report when their own shit gets targeted and goes down

    (obviously not serious, but laced with a grain of truth)
