Chicago is obsessed with 47 shootings

Speculation abounds about the name of the main character of the video game hitman, AK-47 rifle, etc.

Investigative authorities said on the 6th (local time) that King Robert Cremo III (21), who was accused of shooting at an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, a suburb of Chicago, was obsessed with the number ’47’.

He tattooed the number 47 on the corner of his right eye, and also had the number stamped on his car.

Chris Corbelli, spokesperson for the Lake County Felony Task Force Team in charge of Highland Park in Illinois, said that Cremo showed a special attachment to the numbers 4 and 7. “He said.

July 4th is the Independence Day of the United States of America.

A spokesperson for Kobelli said, “It has not yet been confirmed what caused Cremo to shoot indiscriminately, but you can guess his inner self by looking at his digital record.”

First of all, the name of the main character of the hitman video game that Cremo enjoyed is ‘Agent 47’.

Agent 47, a hitman who assassinates villains, is also called ’47’ or ‘codename 47’.

Also, among gang members, the number 47 refers to the AK-47 assault rifle, NBC reported.

It is unclear whether the gun he fired was an AK-47.

The investigative authorities only stated that it was a ‘high-performance rifle’.

So far, seven people have been killed and 30 others have been injured in his indiscriminate shooting.

After committing the pre-planned crime, Cremo dressed as a woman, walked to her mother’s house, and took a car to Madison, Wisconsin, a 2.5-hour drive.

At the time, he had more than 60 rounds of ammunition, prosecutors said, and Cremo saw a crowd celebrating Independence Day in Madison and spontaneously thought of a second shot, prosecutors said.

However, he stopped thinking about the additional crime and returned home, and was arrested in Lake Forest, a city north of Highland Park at around 6:30 pm on the 4th, eight hours after the incident.

He was charged with seven counts of first-degree murder and was held without bail.
