The Minneapolis Police Department said multiple people were arrested on July 4 for misusing fireworks.

The details aren’t completely known at this time, as the department said they were still gathering information Friday morning but had made numerous arrests overnight.

However, police said more information would be available Friday.

The video above provides more information on last night’s arrests and previous incidents with fireworks.

This article will be updated when new information is provided by Minneapolis police.

Call it a Fourth of July miracle.

After a day of heavy rains, the sun peeked out early Thursday evening and the Red, White, and Boom event in Minneapolis was back on track.

“I kept checking Facebook, trying to see if they are going to be on, and they said they’re going,” laughed Jenai Brazell of Richfield. “And I said, ‘Let’s go, it’s time to go.’”

There was dancing and live music at Mill Ruins Park after the city’s announcement that the fireworks show would go on.

“When it cleared up, we decided to come down, get some food, listen to some music,” says Brittany Bennett, who lives nearby.

Bennett and her toddler son, Aiden, looked ready to celebrate the nation’s birthday.

“Hopefully, it stays clear and people get to enjoy the fireworks,” she said. “It’d be a big letdown if it didn’t happen.”

But earlier in the day the prospects for a successful fireworks show didn’t look so good.

Vendors busied themselves getting their food trucks ready in case the weather cleared.

Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board workers on the riverfront tried to stay positive.

“The weather, you can’t control Mother Nature,” declared Sammy Vazquez, a lemonade vendor.

There was water, water everywhere, it seemed — a super-soaker that put a damper on the holiday mood.

“Disappointing. You know, it’s Independence Day, everybody wants to see — hopefully, we see some fireworks tonight,” said Andy Long, an equipment operator with Minneapolis parks.

But remember the poem on the Statue of Liberty?

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses …”

A day we celebrate our independence and freedom is perhaps also a day of miracles.

“I heard the fireworks are amazing. I’m excited to see what happens tonight,” said Meredith Jolin, visiting from Charlotte, North Carolina.

Fireworks mirrored over the Mississippi — an evening of patriotism and joy replacing a day of gloomy weather.

“Seeing all the food trucks, seeing everybody out, it’s a good sense of community here,” said Jolin’s husband, Kevin.

MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – Construction is set to begin next week on a mixed-use riverfront trail in north Minneapolis that will extend a popular regional trail.

The new riverfront trail segment will connect Ole Olson Park and the 26th Avenue North Overlook, creating a new 1,000-foot trail in the process that officials hope will add “new riverside experiences” to the area for pedestrians and cyclists. The trail also connects the 26th Avenue North Overlook to the downtown riverfront and the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway – a 51-mile continuous bike/walk trail that circles most of Minneapolis.

The addition will connect to an off-street trail on 26th Avenue North, which travels across north Minneapolis between the Mississippi River and Theodore Wirth Regional Park.

Contractors are scheduled to begin work on July 8, with hopes of completion by late-fall this year.

Construction will begin with strategic tree clearing over portions of the site – an act that officials say is unavoidable due to grading that will ensure the trail has a safe incline and sightlines.

Once completed, the new trail will take people down the riverbank, under the BNSF railway bridge, and back up to street level on either side of the connection, according to project documents.

The trail will also be constructed to withstand emergency and maintenance vehicles, up to a pickup truck, when needed.
