More Fireworks Wash Ashore at Jones Beach

WANTAGH — Authorities have recovered more unexploded fireworks at a Long Island beach where a July 4 celebration was held.

The seven shells recovered Sunday at Jones Beach State Park in Wantagh are in addition to the 83 explosives that washed ashore a day earlier and led to an evacuation.

New York State Police Chief Richard O'Donnell says investigators believe the fireworks fell off a barge owned by Farmingdale-based Bay Fireworks.

The company's president, Charlie Rappa. has said that Bay Fireworks takes care to track unused shells and that he had never seen an "anomaly like this."
