There was a shooting at the Fourth of July parade in Highland Park.
The suspect's father sponsored his son's gun permit in order to go to a range.

The father of a man suspected of the fatal mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade sponsored his son's gun permit application because he thought he wanted to shoot at targets.
According to the New York Post, Robert Crimo Jr. sponsored his son's identification card so that he could legally own a gun.
He said that he did this because he thought his son wanted to go to the shooting range and that the 21-year-old suspect was given background checks when he bought the guns.
He told the Post that he did his background check on each of them.
He denied being involved in the shooting.
The father of the suspect said that people try to blame him for the shooting. I didn't do anything wrong and I'm going to stay here.
