So according to the news report the person was either shooting from a kneeling position, or shooting from a rooftop of office window.
No description of the criminal, not even clothing, and no description of the gun (which isn't surprising if they didn't recover one and an autopsy hasn't been performed yet).
Supposedly an upscale area, and obviously in a more gun-restrictive region.

With comments of "the shooter is someone with training and knowledge of guns" I'm going to make my prediction now.
What will be said:
white, ex-military, armed with an AR-15 with a 30-round mag, and a manifesto checking all the white supremacy boxes.

What will the reality be:
race unimportant, will have manifesto talking about how the area is a gun-free or gun-restricted zone (easy targets), semi-auto of some kind, and KNOWN TO LAW ENFORCEMENT/FBI.

When I first heard the report they mentioned "high-powered rifle" and I immediately assumed it was probably a 30-06 or a .308 and figured now they're finally coming for the hunting rifles. The clips posted show a different story. Clearly it's semi-auto. Guy was pumping out rounds with abandon.

I'm sure it'll be similar to the Buffalo shooter. Troubled 20-something who had all the warning signs but no one did anything.

Despicable act but a mentally deranged freak. Can't wait to hear how Brandon ties this to the Supreme Court ruling.

The short vid someone captured off Youtube - posted above - is boo-coo strange.

This kid was seriously fucked up in head.

Always wonder why they feel they have to hurt other random people - why not just eat the gun yourself and leave innocent people alone.

ETA: wonder if his condition was exacerbated by the COVID lockdown crap - IIRC the governor is that idiot Pritzker and, yes, he's a DemonRat and had pretty draconian COVID policies.
