A shocking July 4th shooting at Westgate Entertainment District left five teens injured, including an 8-year-old, as a juvenile faces charges for endangerment, aggravated assault, and illegal firearm possession. The incident erupted after a dispute over a gun, with surveillance showing the suspect approaching a group before firing.
