Florida Man Gets Hand Blown Off In Fireworks Incident


A Florida man had his hand blown off by fireworks early Saturday morning.

Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies answered a call Saturday regarding an incident involving fireworks just after 1 a.m. in Lauderdale Lakes.

When Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue responded to the incident, the man, as well as his hand, was transported to an area hospital.

The man was later transferred to another hospital by an ambulance.

A witness described the incident as happening very suddenly.

“It wasn’t even like five minutes, ’cause as soon as he lights it, it exploded,” said the person.

The man was taken to the hospital by a private vehicle, but the hand was taken to the hospital by Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue officials, according to the report.

Sadly, his hand was not able to be reattached at the hospital, according to the witness.

“They couldn’t do nothing,” the witness said.
