• Gas prices vary nearly 90 cents a gallon across Desplaines Valley this Fourth of July weekend (southwestregionalpublishing.com) — Bridgeview drivers can find some of the cheapest gas in the Desplaines Valley this Fourth of July weekend, especially along the Harlem Avenue corridor. Several Bridgeview stations are nearly 90 cents cheaper per gallon than pricier options in Brookfield and Chicago, potentially saving local residents more than $12 on a single 15-gallon fill-up. 
• Drunken driving, ID theft, car vandal: Countryside police blotter (southwestregionalpublishing.com) — A recent Countryside police blotter details several local incidents, from car vandalism and a wallet-related ID theft case to a Bolingbrook woman charged with DUI. That driver, stopped on La Grange Road, was cited just under the legal alcohol limit and ordered to appear at Bridgeview Courthouse, tying the case to our local judicial hub.
