CHICAGO (AP) — Mexico's consulate in Chicago says the father of two children found dead with their mother and three adults in their home last week is headed from Mexico to Chicago for the funerals. Police say they'll speak to him but that he's not a suspect.
Consulate official Marcelino Miranda told The Associated Press Wednesday the U.S. granted Manuel Armando Cruz a humanitarian visa. He was expected to arrive late Wednesday and attend Sunday funeral services. The six bodies would be buried later in Mexico.
Investigators believe the family was "targeted." But no one's been arrested.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi added Wednesday that authorities know the father wasn't in the U.S. at the time. He says Cruz isn't a suspect but that authorities are speaking to everyone they can for any clues.
