FIVE, STREAMING LIVE. POLICE IN HERMOSA BEACH NOW TRYING TO TRACK DOWN WHOEVER SET OFF THOSE FIREWORKS OVER THE WEEKEND. >> EYEWITNESS NEWS REPORTER CARLOS GRANDA CAUGHT UP WITH PEOPLE WHO WERE ON THE BEACH AT THE TIME. THEY COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED. >> THE FIREWORKS LIT UP THE NIGHT SKY AND SENT PEOPLE RUNNING SATURDAY NIGHT IN HERMOSA BEACH AS A GROUP ON E-BIKES LAUNCHED ILLEGAL FIREWORKS INTO THE CROWD. JOHN PHAM SAYS HE WAS HIT AS HE TRIED TO GET AWAY. >> DEFINITELY FELT MULTIPLE PARTICLES HIT THE BACK OF MY HEAD IN MY EARS, BUT YEAH, I WAS LIKE, LIKE TRAUMATIZED, SHOCKED, LIKE AS SOON AS THE EXPLOSION HAPPENED, HE CAPTURED THE SCENE WITH HIS CAMERA ON HIS BIKE. >> THE AREA WHERE IT OCCURRED IS LINED WITH SHOPS AND RESTAURANTS . >> I THINK THAT THAT IS AS ALMOST AS CLOSE AS SHOOTING A GUN. >> THAT'S JUST RIDICULOUS. >> IT'S.
