Independence Day shooting suspect arrested

Robert E. Crimo III news

Police have detained 22yo ‘person of interest’ in Highland Park, Illinois mass shooting.

Authorities have apprehended a suspected gunman in the Highland Park, Illinois mass shooting, where at least six people were killed and dozens injured during an Independence Day parade on Monday.

The suspect’s vehicle was spotted by a police officer around 6:30pm and following a “brief pursuit” he was taken into custody “without incident,” authorities confirmed on Monday evening, some nine hours after the shooting.

Local police and the FBI earlier identified 22-year-old Robert E. Crimo III as the main ‘person of interest’ in the attack, and cautioned he should be considered armed and dangerous. Authorities believe there was only one shooter, but have yet to press any charges against the detained man.

The gunman opened fire at the Independence Day parade from a rooftop of a commercial building around 10:15am, injuring dozens and sending hundreds, including families with children, to flee in panic. Five people were killed at the scene, while another victim died at a hospital.

In a statement following the incident, President Joe Biden said he and first lady Jill Biden were “shocked by the senseless gun violence,” praising the first responders and law enforcement on the scene, and promising that he “will not give up fighting the epidemic of gun violence.”

  1. Gun violence is glorified by hollyweird and TV,politicians like Hillary and Biden talk openly of murdering foreign leaders.The whole society is sick,but they chose to blame the guns.The Vietnam war was rejected by the youth of America,which was a big lesson learned for the warmongers.So the military industrial complex started funding movies and tv shows glorifying the military and federal police agencies to brainwash this new generation to have a totally different mindset.Brainwashed Americans actually believe that the “troops have been fighting for their freedom”,and they are heroes.

    • This is all you get now for ‘cheap, affordable programming (& ‘programming is just that!). No wonder Clare Curran got out of Parliament…
      Cop shows, a few war shows, criminal investigation shows, and the topper of all that crap; ‘The Real (nasty-ass dysfunctional) Housewives series on J3wi$h-owned Bravo Network!!!!!!
      Now, to be sure, watching such tripe and trash will make the programmable target hungry! Not to worry…
      Master Chef to the rescue!!!! Those with a sweet tooth are privileged to see and watch ‘Master Bakers’ adding recipes to already bad teeth.
      And…let us not forget the time-wasting game shows that most all of us will never be on, nor would ever want to be on!
      Not to be outdone, the Woke and lying media mouthpieces will continue to spew out all of the politically-correct government approved narratives of ‘news’ that the Illuminati Globalist Sinclair News Service has to offer- word for word on different stations!
      When their :20 minutes of actual airtime is up, we will then have ‘sports’ rammed down our throats for the remainder until the only honest reporting occurs, that being the Weather Report…mostly honest…
      But even then, ‘Climate Change’ and ‘Global Warming’ goes hand-in-hand with the North & South Poles melting, resulting in ‘coastal erosion’.
      But, Netflix, Zoom, Amazon tech, and whatever spyware that we invite into our homes is not given a second thought, as many must have these things to be ‘hip and informed’ in an age of Fake News that the MSM are actually guilty of. Smart (ass) Homes, appliances, apps, real-time in-home microphones, cameras and 5G blasting thru our homes is perfectly inline with breaking down the red blood cell’s external membranes allowing the Covid virus, vaccines and boosters to complete the job that THEY have been wanting to do for the last 50 years; the extermination of the human race and the methods we might have to defend ourselves, both physically and biologically…!

  2. 2 years prior to this he threatened to kill himself and his family and the police took 16 knives off him, he is clearly a weirdo judging by his tattoos, his clothing and hair, his car and his desire to paint silhouettes of gunmen on the side of a building but NAH – nothing that raised any red flags to his family…… ????????????????

    People like this are a direct result of poor parenting. Apparently his parents sometimes forgot and were always late to pick him and his brother up from an after school program. Many of these people have either not had enough attention, boundaries/consequences OR a they have been spoilt and no one has ever said no to them.
