Gunfire erupted in an affluent Chicago suburb on Monday, prompting the city to cancel its Fourth of July celebration, authorities said.
The shooting happened "in the area of the Independence Day parade route," the Lake County Sheriff's Office said in statement posted shortly after 11 a.m. CDT.
No other details, including how many people were shot, were released.
"Highland Park Police are responding to an incident in downtown Highland Park," according to statement from the lakeshore city just north of Chicago.
Bad people do bad things so we must punish the people who didn’t do it.
Are you tired of 50 million foreign invaders living here illegally yet? They hate you and they hate America. They only want to take a whack at the Big Pinata and see what they can make fall out. PIGS!!!
Come on, giant asteroid.
VIDEO of the shots here
At least 25 shots were fired at an Illinois Fourth of July parade in Highland Park
Per another thread:
The on-air reporter, and people contacting the show have said that the shots came from a shooter on the roof of a commercial building near 2nd and Central Ave.
Of course, Illinois.
A friend was there and just told me about it. At least one fatality.
My guess is it will be a white libtard angry about the abortion ruling.
If it was indeed a sniper on the roof, it sounds too complex for most criminals.
Since they have banned so-called assault rifles, we know a semi-automatic rifle wasn’t used. Of course, they may have banned the “scary look black guns with the bullet thingy underneath, like Charlie Sheen had in Platoon “!
If he's a white guy, they won't look into his politics. They'll just paint him as a Trump supporter.
Oh, celebrations in Chicagistan. Where’s groot?
At least nine people are shot. ....
Local radio saying 6 dead. Dozens wounded.
Video near the scene - can hear about two dozen shots.

Book repository? Dumbasses gonna dumbass. 🤔😠
Otherwise, why target a white, affluent, suburban area?

Highland Park is an extremely wealthy north shore Chicago suburb. No gun violence to speak of. It’s a heavily Jewish area....
Janes revenge?
