Several explosions reported on the Hermosa Beach Pier were confirmed to be fireworks set off by a group of juveniles riding e-bikes.
Teenagers riding e-bikes unleashed mayhem on the Hermosa Beach Pier on Saturday evening as they set off fireworks on unsuspecting crowds walking through the area. The teens ignited the fireworks just after 8:30 p.m., and the first calls to police told of loud explosions, according to emergency dispatch reports. The Hermosa Beach Police Department determined that a group of teenagers caused the commotion by volleying fireworks into Pier Plaza.
He captured the large explosion on his bicycle's camera and felt the debris hit the back of his head as he walked away from the blast. 'I saw a little girl run right past me after the firework exploded. My ears were ringing and my heart was racing,' Fahmy told The Times. 'She must have been right near it when it went off, because I can't imagine being any closer to the firework than I was and not getting hurt.
