: The man accused of opening fire into a crowd at an Independence Day parade this week has admitted carrying out the rampage, as chilling new details emerged of his plan to commit a second mass shooting.
But as he awaits a second court hearing later this month, police have revealed how Crimo fled the scene,, and later drove to the neighbouring state of Wisconsin where he contemplated committing another massacre at a July 4 event in the Madison area, about 239 kilometres from Highland Park. Those numbers, which Covelli added “apparently comes from music that he’s interested in” represent the date of the Independence Day shooting: July 4.The massacre has once again rocked the US and intensified what was an already polarising debate over the country’s gun laws.
“I knew she was dead, so I just told her that I loved her, but I couldn’t stop because he was still shooting everyone next to me” she said. Asked if this could pave the way for potential charges involving family members, State Attorney Eric Rinehart said: “I don’t want to answer that question right now in terms of what our work continues to be, to look at all of the information and evidence in this case.”
