Moreno Valley Enforces Anti-Fireworks Laws
Fireworks are the Moreno Valley Police Department’s top non-emergency priority. Officers are patrolling on the ground and in the air looking for violators.

Not only are they dangerous and potentially deadly, using fireworks can result in jail time and up to $3,500 in fines.

Fireworks, they’re just not worth it. Visit www.moval.org/fireworks for more information.
