A child injured in the Waukesha parade has died, bringing the toll to six

Prosecutors in Wisconsin on Tuesday charged a man with intentional homicide in the deaths of five people who were killed when an SUV was driven into a Christmas parade earlier this week that also left 62 people injured, including many children.

Prosecutors say a sixth person, a child, has died and more charges are pending. Several of those injured remain in critical condition.

Brooks made his initial appearance in court Tuesday. He could be heard crying during the proceeding.

Brooks had been free on $1,000 bail for a case in Milwaukee county earlier in November in which he is accused of intentionally striking a woman with his car. Prosecutors said they are investigating their bail recommendation in that case, calling it inappropriately low.

Waukesha Police Chief Dan Thompson said Brooks, 39, was leaving the scene of a domestic dispute that had taken place just minutes earlier when he drove into the parade route.

Brooks has been charged with crimes more than a dozen times since 1999 and had two outstanding cases against him at the time of the parade disaster. That included resisting or obstructing an officer, reckless endangering, disorderly conduct, bail jumping and battery for the 2 November incident.

Ahead of a first court appearance by the suspect for the parade incident, friends and family members of the injured spoke of their ordeal online.
