CHARLOTTE — Mecklenburg County has rescinded a permit for the National Whitewater Center to hold fireworks shows for Independence Day, Channel 9 confirmed on Friday.

The National Whitewater Center had planned on a big fireworks display Monday and Tuesday to celebrate the Fourth of July, but Tuesday’s events will have to go without the rockets’ red glare.

This news comes after Charlotte’s police chief wrote a letter to Mecklenburg County Manager Dena Diorio and Charlotte City Manager Marcus Jones with an outline of lingering safety concerns after he learned that a permit had been approved for the Whitewater Center to host a fireworks show.
