The uncle of a 22-year-old male who police have described as a “person of interest” during the July 4 parade mass shooting near Chicago said there was nothing suspicious about his nephew.

Robert Crimo III lived with his father, who reportedly owned a deli and ran for mayor of Highland Park several years ago, and his uncle in his grandfather’s house, but his uncle said he had generally few interactions with him. The uncle, Paul Crimo, told local media that there were no signs his nephew was going to commit a mass shooting.
