The gun that was used to kill at least seven people and wound dozens more in Highland Park was purchased legally, police said. In all, the man charged in the attack purchased five weapons legally over the course of the past year, police said.
Downtown Highland Park is pictured on July 5, 2022, a day after a mass shooting occurred at the Fourth of July parade.
The shooting at the Highland Park parade is among the deadliest in Illinois history. At least 38 people, ranging in age from 8 to 85, were taken to area hospitals. Crimo did not have a Firearm Owners Identification card at that time, so it could not be revoked at the time the knives, dagger and sword were seized, officials said.
Steve Greenberg, an attorney for Crimo’s parents, did not respond immediately to a request for comment from WTTW News about why Crimo’s father agreed to sign off on his son’s application to own such a powerful weapon after he threatened to die by suicide and harm family members.
Despite the fact that Highland Park has some of the toughest-in-the-nation gun control laws, those restrictions cannot stop guns from being purchased legally in other cities and states and brought into the city.for selling “hundreds, if not thousands,” of illegal firearms that made their way into Chicago, where they were used to commit at least 850 violent crimes.
