THE TRUTH ABOUT: Robert crimo sized up synagogue months before highland park shooting security officer says - The Untold Story

City of Highland Park

Robert Crimo, the suspect in the deadly July 4th mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois, that left seven dead and dozens wounded, reportedly paid a suspicion-raising visit to a synagogue over Passover, a security director claimed.

Martin Blumenthal, the volunteer security coordinator for Central Avenue Synagogue, told The Forward that Mr Crimo visited the congregation on the last day of Passover in April, pointing out that the facility is located just a stone’s throw away from the parade route where the 21-year-old is alleged to have randomly fired off more than 70 rounds into a crowd watching the Independence Day celebration on Monday.
