Officers across South Yorkshire geared up for Bonfire Night on 5 November, with additional neighbourhood, response and public order trained officers on duty, the force says.
During the night, police received 84 calls into their control room for firework-related incidents. The majority of people enjoyed Bonfire Night safely, attending organised events and celebrating with friends and family, the force says.
However, police say a small minority were set on causing issues, with the majority of calls reporting youths setting fireworks off in the streets and towards vehicles. Officers responded and dispersed the groups, and follow-up investigations will now continue.
Following disorder over the Halloween weekend, five teenagers were arrested for their involvement. As the weekend begins, police are urging parents to step up and take responsibility for their children's actions.
The force said: "Throwing fireworks is not harmless fun - it is dangerous and could cost someone their life."
Officers will be on patrol and responding to incidents over the weekend. Police say efforts responding to incidents that could be avoided by better choices and common sense are being diverted from other incidents and crimes, adding: "This behaviour is completely unacceptable and we will act against those people who are intent on ruining it."
The force thanked communities for helping spread the message, reporting incidents and showing officers respect while on patrol.
