Three years after a deadly warehouse shooting in Aurora killed five employees, Illinois State Police said they are continuing to focus on reducing a backlog of FOID card reviews.
On Feb. 15, 2019, a disgruntled employee killed five coworkers and wounded a sixth during a termination meeting at the Henry Pratt Co. warehouse in Aurora. He was killed in a shootout with police after he wounded five officers.
In the wake of the Pratt shooting, Illinois State Police made changes to how FOID card revocation details are shared among law enforcement agencies and created a portal listing every revoked card holder that 779 police departments are accessing, officials said.
