A man in Wisconsin was arrested for lighting off fireworks in the middle of the grocery store for a ridiculous reason.
Wisconsin Grocery Store Evacuated Because Of Fireworks Ignited on Shelf
I will admit that I’m a fan of pulling pranks on people as much as the next guy. It’s okay to have fun, but sometimes you have to use your common sense so you don’t do something dumb and take the bit too far. When I was in middle school, one of my buddies could get firecrackers. We would light those off in someone’s yard or similar, but it never caused any damage.
A man was arrested in Madison, lighting off fireworks in a Pick ‘n Save. He walked into the grocery store and found an open space on a display shelf. He pulled out some fireworks and placed them in that area. Then he lit the fireworks on fire and took off. The commotion caused the store to be evacuated. Luckily, no one was injured, and there was only minor damage. The security cameras captured the whole incident. The police were quickly able to track down the suspect and arrest him. He admitted to the crime and said he did it for some sort of social media challenge.
