The night of the Fourth of July was slower than usual for some fire agencies in Clark County with almost all of the county under a fireworks ban.
While some agencies stepped up patrols and sounded the alarm of fire danger ahead of this weekend, officials said the ban was effective because of the relatively quiet weekend for first responders.
The Clark County Fire Marshal’s Office, which patrolled the unincorporated areas of the county, wrote seven $500 citations on the night of the Fourth, according to Fire Marshal Dan Young. He said most of those were for people whom officers had already warned earlier in the night but who lit fireworks anyway.
