Law enforcement officials revealed more details Tuesday about the suspected gunman in the Highland Park parade shooting that left six people dead and over 30 others wounded.

Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli saidacted alone and planned the attack for weeks before firing more than 70 rounds at the crowded Independence Day parade

After the shooting, Crimo blended in with the crowd and walked to his mother's home in the area where he borrowed her vehicle, Covelli said. A member of the community spotted Crimo driving and called 911.Another rifle was recovered from Crimo's vehicle when he was arrested. Police found more guns at Crimo's residence in Highwood. All of the guns were purchased legally in Illinois and under his name, Covelli said.

The shooting occurred at a spot on the parade route where many residents had staked out prime viewing points early in the day for the annual celebration. Dozens of fired bullets sent hundreds of parade-goers — some visibly bloodied — fleeing. They left a trail of abandoned items that showed everyday life suddenly, violently disrupted: A half-eaten bag of potato chips; a box of chocolate cookies spilled onto the grass; a child’s Chicago Cubs cap.

Did y’all just assume the gender of this worthless human? How dare you ❄️

AnitaBlantonTV I bet he always painted his fingernails. I bet this wasn’t the first time he showed feminine tendencies. All the signs were there. Especially the mass gun purchases

If only there was a way we could tell these GUYS were not right in the head.

Premeditated

Definitely a liberal

We own guns. We go shooting twice a month. However....NOBODY needs an AR type weapon. They should ALL BE COLLECTED, destroyed and banned!
