Mahalo Honolulu Fire Department and Stay Safe too!The twinkling of holiday lights might be fading but replacing them with illegal fireworks isn’t the answer. These explosives cause serious injuries, fires and life-altering trauma.
“Ultimately, just think about yourself and your family and those around you who may be impacted if something really were to go wrong.”
Deputy Fire Chief Jason Samala joined HPR’s The Conversation this week to reinforce the safety messaging around illegal aerial fireworks, general firecracker safety and HFD’s response.
“That is our mission. Basically to keep the community safe, also ourselves because we’re part of the community. When we’re off-duty we are no different from our neighbors. So that’s ultimately our mission. And we do that through prevention and obviously response.”
Keep your family, keiki, friends and community safe and leave the pyrotechnics to the professionals!
