TAYLORVILLE, Ill. (WAND) - Video showed fireworks being shot off inside a Taylorville home, causing damage.
Taylorville police shared the footage Saturday on their Facebook page. Windows could be heard breaking and bright lights could be seen. The fireworks also went through the home's door!
It's unclear how much damage was caused. This was an owned property and not a rented one.
"It was just a senseless act to do that," Taylorville Police Chief Dwayne Wheeler told WAND News.
Wheeler said authorities were concerned children could be in the house. They learned there were no minors inside.
He added the public appeared to mostly be following the rule of law over the holiday weekend. He said no fireworks-related citations were issued in Taylorville.
