More than 400 People Treated for Fireworks Injuries

In total 434 people were treated for fireworks related injuries at the emergency rooms of Dutch hospitals over New Years.  This is a decline of 8% from last year.  Yet the number of victims under the age of 15 increased from 99 last year to 119 this year.  Two years ago on New Years, one person was killed by illegal fireworks.
