Highland Park shooting

Robert Crimo Jr. is charged with seven counts of reckless conduct — one for each person his son, Robert Crimo III, is accused of killing in Highland Park, Ill., on Independence Day last year.

Lake County State's Attorney Eric Rinehart said the charges of reckless conduct are based on Robert Crimo Jr. sponsoring his then 19-year-old son's application for a gun license in 2019.

The man accused of killing seven people and wounding dozens more in a shooting at an Independence Day parade in suburban Chicago pleaded not guilty on Wednesday.

Friends, neighbors and dignitaries paid their respects Saturday to the family of Eduardo Uvaldo, one of the seven people who were killed in the attack on a July Fourth parade near Chicago.

Mourners remembered a woman who worked tirelessly at her synagogue and a gentle man who loved art in the first formal services to be held for the seven people killed during a July Fourth parade.

One way to help is by donating, whether to official community funds or verified fundraisers set up by families of those hurt or killed. Just be wary of scams, a city official warns.

The man charged with killing seven people at an Independence Day parade fled to the Madison, Wis., area afterward and contemplated shooting up an event there, authorities said Wednesday.

Aiden McCarthy's parents, Kevin and Irina, both died in the shooting, which left five others dead and more than two dozen wounded.

The 21-year-old charged with murdering seven people at the parade in suburban Illinois confessed to the shooting after he was taken into custody. He is being held without bail.
