A business district that had been blocked since a July 4 parade mass shooting that left seven people dead reopened Sunday morning in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park.

The 2-block by 3-block area consists largely of small shops and restaurants. It had been blocked off with crime scene tape, barricades and uniformed officers since Monday as the FBI and other law enforcement agencies processed evidence.

He said he did not attend the parade this year but lives about 100 yards away and heard the gunshots, though he didn't realize what they were until his brother called him from Florida in a panic. “She called me up in tears and said 'I've lost my safe haven,”' Miller recounted. “'Highland Park was always the one place I could go where I was safe and that's taken away.”'

The reopening of the business district comes two days after funerals started for the seven people who were killed in the shooting. Authorities said the attacker fired more than 80 rounds into the parade crowd with a semi-automatic rifle.
