I do want to go to some of the video because i was up on that hill earlier this evening and if it werent for the cell signal, wed be going live up there right now. You can see those flames and just how close they were to some of the homes earlier this afternoon, at one point between 30 to 50 feet from those homes on woodley place, but they have since dissipated at this point and even gone in the other direction a bit and the good news this evening is the fact the wind is not nearly as strong as it was earlier this afternoon in this area. Most of the people have been evacuated from here. I mean it was a mandatory evacuation. I did talk with a couple people who chose not to leave despite that mandatory evacuation. They advised us get out now and i said we will be ready to go if we think were in jeopardy and they were insistent and we said, you know, bear with us. We want to stay as long as we can.

PEORIA Frank Serrano was a joker and a man who would loan you a few coins if you didn t have enough to get a soda.
The Peoria Public Schools resource officer died recently, according to a Facebook post on the district s resource officer page. A former Peoria police officer and a veteran of the district of more than 20 years, Serrano, 61, was mourned publicly by his fellow officers, who called him a mentor and the heartbeat of the team. Sgt. Serrano s heart was not only for his team, but his children, whom he adored; Richie and Marcy.

He never missed an opportunity to pull a prank on officers over the years, the post read in part.
