(FOX40.COM) — A man was arrested in Sacramento County on Thursday after deputies found him with nearly 10,000 pounds of illegal fireworks, over $20,000 in cash, and multiple guns.
The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said an anonymous tip alerted deputies to the illegally owned fireworks after a concerned citizen saw an advertisement on social media for them.
“Deputies and investigators conducted an investigation and authored a search warrant into a residence on Emory Court in South Sacramento,” the sheriff’s office said.
