So fireworks are illegal in the city of Houston. But they’re legal in surrounding Harris County. The problem is, Houston has annexed several roads outside the city limits, though there are no signs to let Harris County residents know this.
So Houston police are watching as Harris County residents buy fireworks at a perfectly legal fireworks stand, then stopping and fining them when they pull onto a road the city has annexed. Fines range from $500 to $2,000.
