Let $f_n$ be the continuous triangular bumpand set $f_1=0$. At $x=0$ every term is zero, and each fixed $x>0$ eventually lies outside the support, so $f_n\to 0$ pointwise. The triangle has base $2/n$ and height $n$, henceThis concentrating triangular bump shows that pointwise convergence does not preserve integrals, even for continuous functions on a compact interval.
