Firecracker??? RIIIIIGHT! Was it a “Lady Finger” or a “Black Cat/” Whew! Those are just sooo dangerous.
I can categorically guarantee that whatever it was that exploded under this guy’s leg, it was NOT a “firecracker.” Not even an M-80 or two Cherry Bombs fused together.

Daily Mail quote:
“After the incident, the NYPD’s bomb squad was called in to confirm that it was a firecracker that caused the blast and not something more sinister, such as an explosive device, sources said.”
Firecracker can cause a “blast” but an explosive device is “more sinister?” They’re not called in to confirm anything but a narrative, apparently.
