With all of the Fourth of July fireworks, especially the illegal ones, being set off throughout the Capitol City, it's been a stressful few days for pets. Many dogs got spooked and ran away this holiday weekend.

The city will deploy drones this Fourth of July to crack down on illegal fireworks and protect communities from fire hazards.

Procession kicks off from Boston City Hall Plaza at 9 a.m. and meanders to the Old State House for the annual reading of the U.S. Declaration of Independence.
