A man was hospitalized following a Fourth of July shooting at a Peoria apartment, and unattended fireworks sparked a house fire in Peoria Heights, marking a dangerous holiday weekend in the area. On a brighter note, the warm weather expected today should help local crops recover after weeks of rain, while the Peoria Volksfest is celebrating German heritage and America's 250th birthday. If you're looking for evening entertainment, Justin Moore is performing at the Knox County Fairgrounds or you can catch Dexter O'Neal & Funk Yard at Peoria RiverFront.
