Watch fireworks light up the Southern California skyline as revelers celebrate the Fourth of July.

KTLA’s Gil Leyvas cruised the skies in Sky5, catching a fireworks show at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena after a game between L.A. Galaxy and LAFC and later soaring across cities as they launched their local fireworks shows.
