Fireworks Injuries

Florida saw a number of fireworks-related injuries during the 2025 Fourth of July celebrations, with several incidents reported across the state:

Hillsborough County: Multiple people suffered devastating injuries, including a 10-year-old boy who required surgery after shrapnel pierced his chest. Two others experienced partial or full hand amputations, and several had damaged eardrums

Water Pressure Problem Solved

Steve Gottfried reported solving a water pressure issue at his home.

He contacted Lee County Utilities at 239-533-8845.

Lee County Utilities promptly came out and ran a pressure check. It read 38 psi which is in tolerance and checked a few things. The man from Lee County Utilities told Steve to run all the faucets and showers for about 5 minutes to purge any air out of the system.

He also flushed the nearest fire hydrant to make sure there were no blockages.
