Fireworks are being blamed for slowing firefighters battling a blaze over the weekend in Galesburg.  The fire started Saturday at a home in the 900 Bateman Street.  Fire crews were slowed due to fireworks and mortars inside the garage igniting and propelling towards them.  No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
