Fireworks recalled due to causing burns

American Promotional Events has recalled TNT Red, White, & Blue Smoke fireworks, pyrotechnic devices that make smoke when lit.

They were sold in a bag containing three canisters: one red, one blue, and one white. Each colored smoke firework is a cardboard cylinder tube that measures about 1 inch in diameter and 5 inches long. The TNT logo “Red, White & Blue Smoke” and UPC number 027736036561 appear on the packaging.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fireworks and contact America Promotional Events for a full refund.

American Promotional Events has received three incident reports, resulting in three people suffering burn injuries. No property damage has been reported.

The fireworks have been sold at Albertsons, Kroger, Meijer, Target, Wal-Mart, and other retailers in Illinois, Ohio, Vermont, and Wisconsin from May through June this year for about $5.
