Yonkers Insider Citizen Corner.

did you see the home in Buena Vista that burned down? there is an interview for you. illegal fireworks all over the city. including in front the mayor's home. THE POLITICAL OFFICIALS NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. NO LAW ENFORCEMENT. THE ENTIRE MONTH OF JUNE THERE WAS FIREWORKS GOING OFF. WAS ANYONE ARRESTED WHO WAS SETTING THEM OFF? NO.

 NO QUESTION IT WAS FIREWORKS. THEY WERE ALL OVER THE CITY INCLUDING IN FRONT OF THE MAYOR HOUSE. MY STREET LOCATED ON CLIFF AVE WAS LIKE A WAR ZONE. FIREWORKS ALL OVER THE PLACE. FELT LIKE A WAR ZONE. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE STREET FILLED WITH FIREWORKS. ONE NEIGHBOR, I ASKED TO CLEAN HIS MESS HE RESPONDED BY CURSING ME OUT. I CALLED THE POLICE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. NO SUMMONS ISSUED.. WHY ARE PEOPLE NOT ISSUED A TICKET FOR SETTING OFF FIREWORKS. EVIDENCE ALL OVER THE PLACE. PLENTY OF WITNESS AS THERE WERE CROWDS WATCHING THESE FIREWORKS GOING OFF.. I FEARED MY HOUSE COULD HAVE GONE UP IN FLAMES. LIKE THE ONE IN THIS PHOTO. THE MAYOR SPANO PROMISED TO CRACKDOWN ON FIREWORKS. HE DID NOT COME THRU AS HE PROMISED. IN FACT, HE PERMITTED THEM TO TAKE PLACE IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD. A DISGRACE.
