Police Search for Man Causing Explosions With Illegal Fireworks

The Elk Grove Police Department said it was looking for a man suspected of setting off two consecutive explosions in the northern California city.

Officers responded to an explosion inside a bathroom at Jones Park on March 12, the department said.

The following day, surveillance footage captured a man wearing a black hoodie riding a bicycle and placing a firework into a trash bin before quickly fleeing the scene.

Footage captured by a CCTV camera shows the suspect placing an explosive in a bin on March 13.
