💨 Abstract

In Birmingham, seven people were arrested after revelers launched fireworks at police during Halloween, turning the city center into a chaotic "war zone." Witnesses described panic and mayhem as fireworks exploded near people. A Section 60 order was imposed, allowing officers to stop and search individuals. West Midlands Police emphasized the danger and illegality of misusing fireworks, working with local partners to ensure community safety.
