Las Vegas Teacher Buys Legal Fireworks and Ends up Fined $500: ‘The Store Just Duped Him’

The topic of fireworks is often a heated one. Some people believe they should be banned completely, while others think it is acceptable to use them on certain days. For Errol Aiken, a second-grade teacher from Las Vegas, Nevada, he has always been open to using fireworks. Of course, he only intends to purchase legal fireworks that have been officially approved.

Recently, he decided to buy some fireworks for his family’s Fourth of July celebration. He visited a store in Pahrump after receiving a coupon that offered a buy-one-get-one-free deal. Before making his purchase, he questioned the store staff about which fireworks were legal in his area. He made it clear that he was from Las Vegas and asked several times whether the items he selected were legal for someone from his area. The staff assured him that the fireworks were fine to buy.
