Fourth fireworks all in sky

Local officials say the fireworks in the county last weekend were well attended and the crowds were well behaved.

Crittenden County Sheriff Wayne Agent reported that no disturbances were reported from Dam 50's Riverside Park nor Dycusburg where Fourth of July celebrations included large crowds and fireworks.

One observer estimated that more than 200 people were at Dam 50 Saturday night and a smaller, but still lively crowd was at Dycusburg. Volunteers and donations led to fireworks at both locations.
