Watching it on WGN now.
No shooter found. Appears to have come from an upper window in a building on the parade route.
Unconfirmed report that shooter is holed up.
2 confirmed dead.
Given that community, I'm really shocked.

WGN reporting an eye witness saw the shooter & has given a description and he was NOT in a building.
Reports 40 to 50 shots, the reload & repeat.
Indicates shooter was methodical & appeared to be in a shooting position suggesting highly trained.
