Police in Highland Park have just explained how psychopath gunman Bobby Crimo evaded them yesterday after the shooting.
According to police, Crimo dressed in women’s clothing to conceal his tattoos and facial marks and then blended in with the crowd after the shooting. He was able to escape to his mother’s house.

UPDATE: I meant to add this too, that back in April Crimo tried to enter a synagogue and he was stopped by armed guards:
