Six people were killed and dozens wounded when a wannabe white rapper opened fire from a rooftop on a Fourth of July parade in the affluent Chicago suburb of Highland Park. In all, the victims ranged in age from 8 to 85. Here’s what we know so far about the slain victims:
Jacki Sundheim
Sundheim was the events coordinator at North Shore Congregation Israel, a synagogue where’s she’d been a lifelong member, her nephew Luke Sundheim told NBC News. She was also a former pre-school teacher.
Nicolas Toledo
Toledo, 76, had recently moved from Mexico to be with family in Highland Park. One of his granddaughters, Xochil Toledo, told the New York Times that he hadn’t wanted to go to watch the parade, but his disabilities meant he had to be in the company of someone at all times.
