An Illinois community remains devastated after a Fourth of July parade was attacked by a gunman who killed at least six people and injured 24 others.
Although gun violence has particularly escalated in the United States in recent years, 2022 has already seen multiple mass shootings unfold in Buffalo, New York, Uvalde, Texas, and Tulsa, Oklahoma.
And while each of these incidents were different in terms of motivation and police response, all saw an individual senselessly destroy the lives of others with a firearm. But while these tragedies were already too much to live with, it seems that hasn't made one shooter any less inclined to bring similar terror to Highland Park, Illinois.
Unfortunately, this person also remains at large at the time of this writing.
