DEARBORN (WWJ) - A video posted to social media appears to capture people aiming fireworks in the direction of Dearborn police Thursday night, authorities said.
The video, posted to Instagram, appears to show fireworks being shot off in the direction of Dearborn Police vehicles. The video is captioned “group of teens throw fireworks at Dearborn Police.”
