\"thumb_police-tyler-car\"<\/a>TYLER — The Tyler Police Department has issued a few reminders for the 4th of July Holiday. Authorities said all unauthorized fireworks are prohibited in the City of Tyler unless you have obtained a special permit from the City. All alcohol, smoking and fireworks are also not allowed in city parks; that includes Lake Tyler Parks and Lindsey Park. Please check your local media outlet for authorized fireworks programs.<\/p>\n

Tyler Police also would like to remind the citizens that the discharge of firearms into the air in celebration is a violation of the law. The act of discharging a firearm in the air is seen by some as a harmless expression of their parent culture or of good cheer. The reckless use of any firearm is hazardous, and the act of indiscriminately discharging a firearm in celebration is not as harmless as some believe.<\/p>\n

Celebratory Gunfire, that is, shots fired in the air, has caused injury, death and property damage worldwide. Any falling object of sufficient mass accelerated by gravity alone has the potential to cause serious injury or death. There are several documented instances of citizens being killed by gunfire in the United States alone.<\/p>\n

Also, there’s a revision to the times people will be able to park at Lindsey Park for the fireworks show this Saturday. The park will not open until 3 p.m. At 3 p.m. attendees will be able to enter the park through the north entrance (soccer fields) only. Parking will take place on the north side of the park at that time. The south side of the park including the bike trails and frisbee courses will be closed early in the morning on the 5th so that the fireworks can be set up. <\/p>\n

Beginning at 8:30 p.m. Spur 364 at Greenbriar Road will be closed to all eastbound traffic; Spur 364 will be shut down completely starting at 9 p.m. Officers are requesting any resident who lives off Spur 364 between Loop 323 and Greenbriar Road who needs to get home during this time to present his or her driver’s license showing proof of residency to the officers stationed at this location. Officers will allow residents only to proceed westbound on Spur 364. At the completion of the program, the two left turn lanes eastbound on Highway 31 at Loop 323 will be closed. Traffic will not be allowed to turn left, north, onto Loop 323 from the eastbound lanes of Highway 31. Please be aware of officers in the roadway directing traffic; you;re urged to be cautious and drive slowly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
