Good morning, Des Moines.

The Concrete Cruizers Car Club held their annual fundraiser car show at Deery Chevrolet in Pleasant Hill on Saturday morning and donated all proceeds to Ruby Van Meter School—marking the fifth year of support, with last year's funds used to rebuild a playground.

A male was injured in a shooting in the Drake Neighborhood just before 6 p.m. when officers responded to reports of gunfire on the 1500 block of 32nd Street, and he drove from the scene before crashing near MLK Jr Parkway and Meek Avenue while police detained a suspect and recovered a handgun amid an ongoing investigation.

The Iowa State Fair Blue Ribbon Foundation announced that Abigail Bieker from Harlan won the T-shirt contest with her stamp design showing fair favorites like the butter cow, pie and the Sky Glider.

The winning design will be printed and sold at the fair merchandise stand from Aug. 7 to 17—online orders for the top five designs remain open until May 31.

After Oregon hit five home runs and swept Iowa by scores of 10-0, 9-6 and 13-4 on Saturday at Duane Banks Field, Iowa now trails by one game in the Big Ten standings.
