<Anchor> Last

night (4th) at Haeundae in Busan, there was a tumult of foreigners exploding hundreds of fireworks. Even some shot firecrackers at the buildings with the citizens, and the previous day, the reports of residents stumbled as a dangerous act of popping firecrackers out of the windows of skyscrapers.

This is reporter from KNN Park Myeong-sun.

<Reporter> A

foreign male who has a confrontation with the police, continues to fire at his feet and starts to escape.

The man, who fled while falling, was caught by the police he was chasing.


There are even dangerous situations that lead to firecrackers and their citizens.

[Sightseeing: Firecrackers fired into the sky (foreigners), there were a lot of numbers.]

Most of these are believed to be American soldiers who came to Busan on vacation for the American Independence Day.

In the process, an American soldier in his twenties, who set off firecrackers against citizens, was caught by the police.

A day ago, a firecracker riot broke out inside the nearby skyscraper, Haeundae El City Residence, and residents reported.

[Nearest residents: It was a situation where a fire could enter the neighborhood. The flame continued to rise upward... (U.S. military) was in a situation where he was drinking and out of control.]


The US military continued to set off firecrackers by being drunk at the 50th-floor window, and the residents had to worry overnight.

[People at Haeundae Police Station in Busan: Because it is a fine and there are no penalties for candles (fireworks, etc.)… .] After

reaching 70 reports of residents' anxiety, the police later decided to start a 150-man joint squad.
