Child becomes sixth victim of parade crash - as suspect charged and rocks back and forth in court

Child becomes sixth victim of parade crash – as suspect charged and rocks back and forth in court

A man has appeared in court charged with multiple homicides after a car plowed into a Christmas parade in the US – and a child has become the sixth person to die after the incident.

Darrell Brooks, 39, rocked back and forth with his face in his hands as charges were laid against him.

He also appeared to be wearing an anti-stab vest.

Four women and one man also died when the SUV sped down the parade route in Waukesha, Wisconsin on Sunday.

More than 60 people were also injured, including many children.

Witnesses said Brooks appeared to be intentionally moving side to side to hit people with no attempt to slow down, according to the criminal complaint.

A police officer shot at the car and hit it three times, the complaint added, while a detective also stepped in front and pounded on the bonnet – but Brooks drove past him.
