A post on social media claims the fireworks came from a nearby student accommodation building. 

Someone wrote to community page no1seems2care and said: "Be careful if passing the student accommodation opposite the fire station on Milton Street.

"Lit fireworks are being thrown out the windows. I was only feet away when they came flying out the window. Police have been informed."

One person commented: "My dog nearly had a heart attack! Milton St always has people walking about and it could have landed on someone and severely injured them.
