Fireworks freak
Hunt for woman who used them as ‘weapon’
She brought the fire and the fury to the Fourth of July.
A holiday reveler shot a blazing barrage of fireworks at a Brooklyn liquor store Wednesday night, blasting away as people scrambled for safety.
An Instagram user caught the wild scene, showing what appeared to be a woman, holding a fireworks tube as if it were a video-game rocket launcher on Nostrand Ave. and St. John’s Place.
Streaks of bright orange sparks splash against the yellow awning of A D Liquor as the woman walks into the frame of the camera, keeping the tube pointed at the store.
Several pedestrians ran from the blasts as she continued to approach the liquor store.
Despite the chaos, no one called 911 and there were no reported injuries, a police spokeswoman said.
Cops were trying to identify the woman Thursday.
Police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.
