The Highland Park Fourth of July parade has been a holiday tradition for Lindsey and Danny Hartman for years, but in a flash, that tradition turned to horror as they were forced to flee for their lives.
“Bullets were shattering bricks and glass straight over our heads,” Danny said.
When the gunfire briefly stopped, they ran as fast as they could away from Central Avenue, and were able to escape injury. The couple says that Highland Park is a tight-knit community, and they say that the entire town remains in shock. As for their story, they are left to wonder what could have possibly happened to their young daughter.“It’s unthinkable,” Lindsey added. “But it’s not, because it happened to people on our street watching a parade.”
The Hartman’s hope sharing their story will help inspire change so that no family will ever have to go through what the victims in Highland Park have in recent days.
