As July 4 looms, Indiana State Police are reminding revelers to obey fireworks laws:

• Only people 18 and older can buy fireworks.
• Someone 18 or older must be present when anyone younger than 18 is using or possessing fireworks.
• Fireworks can only be used on the user’s property, the property of someone who granted permission for fireworks to be discharged or a place designated by the Indiana State Fire Marshal.
• Fireworks may only be discharged from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. any day except on Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and New Year’s Eve. On those holidays, discharge times are 9 a.m. to midnight.

Also make sure to check your local officials government website to see if your area has any further ordinances.
