Recently, teens on e-bikes were seen setting off powerful fireworks in the middle of crowds in Hermosa Beach.
Teenagers once again are wrecking havoc in South Bay communities. The latest incident happened Saturday night around 8:30 p.m. at the pier. Video shows teenagers riding e-bikes and setting off fireworks saying, "do it, do it. Throw it on the roof."A few seconds later, someone lights and throws something on the ground."My ears were ringing, and I got disoriented," said John Fahmy, who shot the video. "The footage is not apparent that I was scared, but I was startled.
People could have been seriously injured, but we had officers there immediately," said Hermosa Beach Police Chief Paul LeBaron.The incident happened about a week after Hermosa Beach City Council passed an emergency ordinance regulating e-bikes. In this firework incident, police say they are already looking at a suspect."The person we believe is a juvenile, and we are working with that person's family right now," Chief LeBaron said.
