The LED light and sound ball for emergency responders is activated upon contact after being fired from a launcher to illuminate and direct responders to an area of interest, such as a potential crime scene. The ball includes a clear polymeric, spherical outer casing, and a rectangular, clear inner casing having a circuit board mounted therein. A plurality of rig rods extend through the inner casing and include curved heads that are in close proximity to the inner surface of the spherical outer casing. Upon impact, the outer casing flexes and pushes against one of the curved heads and pushes its associated rig rod inward, thereby closing a contact that triggers a control circuit to continuously illuminate a plurality of bright LEDs and continuously activate a sound generator that emits a foghorn-type alarm. The LED light and sound ball may be thrown or fired from a conventional compressed air launcher.
