Warning over 'dodgy' firework sellers

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

People are being warned not to buy fireworks 'out the back of a van'.

The Office of Fair Trading says it's had reports of the items being sold in a pub car park.

It says due to the secretive nature of the alleged sales there is a possibility the fireworks may be banned types and not compliant with health and safety.

The OFT says it is simply "ridiculous" to even consider buying them from "dodgy" sources.
