Simi Valley Fireworks Victim: ‘It Was Too Dark To See Anything … Just Balls Of Light Coming Toward Us’
Posted in: Today's ChiliDanny Morales was enjoying Simi Valley’s Fourth of July celebration Thursday night until he got hit between the eyes by part of an exploding firework.
“It happened pretty quick,” Morales, 42, of Simi Valley said Friday, about 10 hours after being released from Los Robles Hospital & Medical Center in Thousand Oaks. “The lights dimmed down. Everyone faced the fireworks setup. The first two went off good. And then the third one just never lifted off and exploded.
“Next thing you know, a couple minutes later, another one explodes at ground level,” Morales said. “And that’s the one that pretty much got me. Nailed me right between the eyes. A huge gash on my nose.”
