I have been hearing fireworks the nighy or so, I live in a Pittsburgh PA suburb. Probably unrelated to the urban fireworks in various cities.
no, if you are in a suburb, you are being targeted by this
A few yrs ago I visited Pgh and was there on 4th of July. After fireworks ended I took subway back to Steel Plaza station and started walking toward my car, parked nr the Carnegie Sci Center. Heard what I thought was firecrackers but then police sirens. Found out later online someone had been shooting at people right next to the next station down, Wood St. A couple people were injured and they didn’t catch the shooters, as far as I know. Gunshots, again, sounded like firecrackers... I could have gotten off at Wood St and been right around there... Am going back to Pittsburgh for the Fourth weekend but staying just out of town on the 4th, but downtown on the 5th.
