Live Updates: 6 Killed in Shooting at July 4 Parade in Highland Park ... (The New York Times)

The police said at least two dozen more people were injured after the shooting in Highland Park, Ill., north of Chicago, and that they were searching for a ...

Five people died and 16 were hospitalized in the attack on the parade in a northern Chicago suburb, the Highland Park Police said. The timing of a trip by Lisa O. Monaco, the No. 2 law enforcement official in the United States, to Philadelphia in late June, with the heat setting in over the city, was noteworthy. The bangs, he said, that “everyone seemed to confuse it with fireworks” — and then the crowds running. He saw a woman “completely bloody,” he said and multiple people, including a child, injured or dead. And I saw the bullets hitting the tree that was like literally in front of us.” The shooting, he said, led to a “horrific” scene of terrified people and bloodied bodies. He estimated the family was sitting in chairs about 20 feet away from the gunman, who was on the roof of a cosmetics store firing down. The family reached a building and hugged a wall to try to escape the gunman’s line of sight. Representative Brad Schneider, who represents Highland Park, a northern Chicago suburb, in Congress, said he was at the start of the parade when someone began to shoot. Miles Zaremski, 73, a Highland Park resident who was at the parade, said in an interview that he heard what sounded like gunshots from an automatic rifle. He said SWAT teams were going door to door in the area. Police said they believed the gunman, who was not in custody, had fired from a rooftop, using a rifle.
