Sacramento Fire Department. Established 1850. Breaking news and department activity.



Last week, our North Problem Oriented Policing Team (NPOP) obtained information about an illegal fireworks show in a local neighborhood. Similar events have transpired in the past, causing significant damage and safety concerns. Our patrol officers, NPOP, and Explosive Ordinance Disposal Team (EOD) coordinated their efforts to apprehend the suspects with the illegal fireworks before the event started. Together, the teams were able to arrest two individuals who were in possession of approximately 450 pounds of illegal fireworks. This successful operation highlights the power of teamwork between our community and law enforcement to keep everyone safe, especially during July 4th celebrations.
