CHICAGO — A federal search warrant unsealed Thursday alleges “bomb-making materials” were found in the apartment of Highland Park massacre suspect Robert Crimo III, who allegedly told authorities in an interview he’d contemplated bringing improvised explosive devices to the Fourth of July parade route but decided they were too heavy.
“If everything lined up correctly then I would use it, but it didn’t,” Crimo allegedly told investigators who questioned him about the explosive materials in a recorded interview on July 5.
The new details were contained in an FBI affidavit to search emails connected to Crimo as well as a computer hard drive found in the wake of the Fourth of July parade attack that killed seven people and wounded dozens more.
