POLICE in Derry are advising parents to know where their children are following incidens this week involving lethal fireworks.
The PSNI say children were throwing fireworks in Galliagh Park.
A Foyle spokesperson said: “Our motto is #KeepingPeopleSafe – this also includes stopping children at the height of stupidity from suffering life changing injuries whilst messing with explosives.
“Unfortunatley these same kids damaged Police vehicles when Local Policing Team Officers responded.
“This is our job and we will do it.
“But if your child is outside throwing fireworks at houses you need to start knowing what your kids are up to and where they are.
“Otherwise they will end up either arrested or in hospital.”
