A 22-year-old man who is alleged to have killed six people and injured dozens in a shooting in Highland Park is in custody following a police pursuit in Lake County, police said.
Police say charges will be announced this evening against a 21-year-old man as the coroner has released the identities of six of the seven victims killed in the mass shooting in Highland Park.
The Illinois Family Relief Plan, which Governor JB Pritzker says will provide relief on grocery, gas and property taxes, went into effect Friday for Illinois residents.
