A mannequin explodes during a demonstration by Oakland fire officials of an illegal M80 firework during a news conference in Oakland, Calif., Wednesday, July 2, 2008. Lighting fireworks in the city of Oakland is illegal. Public displays for the Fourth of July and sales of boxed firecrackers are being canceled or scaled back across the nation, victims of a sluggish economy, wildfire fears and product shortages caused by a warehouse fire in China.
