Yep. Fire crackers are now considered a "bomb".

Rumor has it that NASA and Homeland Security had fly overs and satellite pictures taken of area.

Maybe time for NH to ban all home fire works. My dogs don't like them.

Sounds like the work of teenagers with New Years Eve fireworks.

Consumer fireworks are not legal and not sold in Massachusetts, so the two Tsarnaev brothers came to a NH fireworks store in Salem NH to get enough black powder to make their April 15, 2013, Boston Marathon bomb that killed three and injured 100's.

Sparklers that started a restaurant/bar ceiling insulation fire, yesterday January 2 at a Switzerland ski resort, killing 40 young people, injuring 119, are also not legal in Massachusetts, and are sold at NH fireworks stores across the state. Sparklers get very hot, very fast with burning tungsten, or something.

Because of the mailbox being under federal jurisdiction, could happen.
The penalty is a fine up to $250,000 and imprisonment up to three years.

And that is without any circumstances that might include "enhanced" charges.

That penalty is accurate but I doubt we will ever see that enforced. Maybe if it were then these pranks would cease to occur.
