An unspeakable tragedy befell the Highland Park, Illinois, community on July 4th when a shooter opened fire on a parade in the Chicago suburb. Seven people lost their lives and dozens of others were left injured, while a town was left to try and recuperate in the immediate aftermath.
On Wednesday afternoon, with the Bears running through their first official training camp practice of the year, they attempted to lend a hand. As the festivities got underway, the team brought out a few special guests to the fields of Halas Hall in nearby Lake Forest — the Highland Park High School football team:
