A fireworks explosion inside a pickup truck critically injured a man in eastern Pennsylvania… Police in Emmaus said the 35-year-old man was sitting inside the truck when the fireworks detonated. He was rushed to Lehigh Valley Hospital in critical condition with injuries that were described as “severe.” Police, first responders, and the Allentown bomb squad were called to the scene and found the truck heavily damaged, with all of its windows blown out. People in neighboring homes were evacuated for about an hour. Investigators have so far determined that the man had purchased the fireworks about a year ago and wasn’t involved in their manufacture.
