Waukesha parade crash suspect appeared to have no emotion as officers tried to stop him, authorities say

(CNN)Shortly before an SUV barreled into a crowd of parade marchers and pedestrians on Sunday in Waukesha, Wisconsin, at least one officer described the driver as having "no emotion" on his face during attempts to slow him down.

At least six people were killed and another 62 were injured in the ensuing crash, according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday in Waukesha County Circuit Court. The youngest victim who died was only 8 years old, according to his family's GoFundMe. More than a dozen people remain hospitalized at a nearby children's hospital.

Darrell E. Brooks, 39, was later apprehended by police and officially charged Tuesday with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide, according to the Waukesha County District Attorney's Office. Prosecutors said they will consider an additional homicide charge following the death of a sixth person on Tuesday from sustained injuries.

Multiple officers with the Waukesha Police Department attempted to get the driver, who is suspected by authorities to be Brooks, to stop or turn around as he came upon the parade route, according to the complaint.

One officer, identified in the complaint as Detective Casey, first heard a horn honking near his location along the parade route. As Casey went to investigate, he saw a red Ford Escape SUV driving past parade participants and "observed people jumping out of the way," according to the complaint.

The SUV was moving at a slow speed at the time, the complaint said, and Casey pounded on the hood of the vehicle while yelling "Stop" multiple times. The SUV brushed past Casey and continued further toward the procession.

Casey chased the vehicle on foot as it began to be driven faster, the complaint said, and radioed for assistance. Seconds later, other reports came in over the police radio that people were being hit by the vehicle.

Another officer, identified as Officer Butryn, also tried to get in front of the SUV, yelling at the driver to "Stop, stop the vehicle," according to the complaint. The officer estimated the vehicle was moving at around 25 miles per hour at the time.

"Officer Butryn observed the driver looking straight ahead, directly at him, and it appeared he had no emotion on his face," the complaint said.

The SUV passed Butryn, at which point he saw the vehicle increase in speed until it reached an intersection where it appeared to stop, the complaint said.

"The vehicle then appeared to rapidly accelerate, as Officer Butryn heard tires squeal," the complaint read. "At this point, it was clear to Officer Butryn that this was an intentional act to strike and hurt as many people as possible."

Butryn saw the vehicle driving in a zig-zag-like pattern, the complaint said, and saw "bodies and objects" flying.

"It was like the SUV was trying to avoid vehicles, not people. There was no attempt made by the vehicle to stop, much less slow down," one witness told an officer, according to the complaint.

After witnessing the SUV running over people, another officer identified in the complaint as Officer Scholten shot at and struck the vehicle three times as it sped away. Authorities do not believe any shots were fired from the vehicle, Waukesha Police Chief Dan Thompson said Sunday.

Brooks sought help from a stranger

After Brooks allegedly fled the scene, he asked a stranger for assistance and stated he was homeless, according to a Waukesha resident.

Daniel Rider, 24, told CNN that he was unaware of what had happened Sunday when he heard the doorbell ring at his house.

A man -- identified by authorities as Brooks -- asked for Rider's help, saying he was homeless and needed to borrow a phone to call an Uber. Rider said Brooks was not wearing shoes and only wearing a t-shirt on a cold day, so he said he believed him and allowed him into the home.

"He was pretty flustered," Rider said of Brooks, but described him as polite during their encounter. Rider made Brooks a sandwich and let him borrow a jacket as he used his phone.

After a few minutes, Rider noticed police going up and down the street and had a feeling it was in relation to Brooks, so Rider asked him to step outside. As Brooks spoke on the phone, the two were outside when Rider said a nearby neighbor flagged him to the situation. Rider then went to Brooks and asked for his phone and jacket back, he said, and Brooks complied. Rider entered the home and then locked the door.

Shortly after, Brooks began "pounding on the door," Rider said, claiming he left his ID inside. Rider refused and told him he would look for it. Moments later, police arrived and arrested Brooks.

Rider said Brooks had called his mother to have an Uber to pick him up. "Uber showed up maybe a minute after he was in custody," Rider said. "So I just think about sometimes if he'd gotten in that car, what could have happened?"

Brooks' bail has been set at $5 million following his initial court appearance Tuesday, with the judge citing potential flight risks.

Brooks had been out on bail after allegedly running over a woman who said she's the mother of his child earlier this month, according to court documents.

6 people have died from injuries

On Monday, authorities identified five of the six people killed as Virginia Sorenson, 79; LeAnna Owen, 71; Tamara Durand, 52; Jane Kulich, 52; and Wilhelm Hospel, 81.

Another victim was identified Tuesday as Jackson Sparks, 8, according to the family's verified GoFundMe page. It is not immediately clear if Jackson is the sixth parade death mentioned by prosecutors and confirmed by Children's Hospital of Wisconsin.

"This afternoon, our dear Jackson has sadly succumbed to his injuries and passed away," an update post to the page said Tuesday.

Two of the 16 children admitted to Children's Hospital of Wisconsin were able to go home Monday, the hospital said in a statement. A total of 13 children remain hospitalized, with six in critical condition, three in fair condition and four in good condition, the statement said.

One of the injured, a firefighter's son, has just been moved out of the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin Intensive Care Unit, according to his father Don Tiegs.

Erick Tiegs was marching with Waukesha South High School Marching Band when he was struck by the SUV, according to a news release by Caledonia Firefighters Association.

"He has undergone surgery to repair a broken femur. He is still being treated for other injuries, including placement of a chest drainage tube, and is continuing to be assessed for any further complications. Unfortunately, he has a long road to recovery ahead of him," read the release.

当局说,当警察试图阻止他时,Waukesha 游行撞车嫌疑人似乎没有情绪

(美国有线电视新闻网)周日在威斯康星州沃基沙,一辆 SUV 冲进游行队伍和行人的人群前不久,至少有一名警官形容司机在试图放慢速度时脸上“没有情绪”。

根据周二在沃克夏县巡回法院提起的刑事诉讼,在随后发生的车祸中,至少有 6 人丧生,另有 62 人受伤。据其家人的 GoFundMe 称,最年轻的死者只有 8 岁。十几人仍在附近的儿童医院住院。

据沃克夏县地方检察官办公室称,39 岁的达雷尔·E·布鲁克斯 (Darrell E. Brooks) 后来被警方逮捕,并于周二被正式指控犯有五项一级故意杀人罪。检察官表示,在周二有第六人因受伤而死亡后,他们将考虑追加谋杀指控。

诉状称,沃克夏警察局的多名警官试图让被当局怀疑是布鲁克斯的司机在游行路线上停下来或掉头。

一名警官在投诉中被确认为侦探凯西,他首先听到游行路线沿线他所在的位置附近有喇叭鸣响。诉状称,当凯西去调查时,他看到一辆红色的福特 Escape SUV 从游行参与者身边驶过,并“观察到人们跳开挡路”。

投诉称,当时这辆 SUV 以缓慢的速度行驶,凯西敲打着汽车的引擎盖,同时多次大喊“停下”。 SUV从凯西身边擦过,继续朝着队伍前进。

投诉称,凯西步行追赶这辆车,因为这辆车开得越来越快,投诉称,并通过无线电寻求帮助。几秒钟后,警方通过无线电传来了其他报告,称有人被车辆撞倒。

投诉称,另一名被确认为警官 Butryn 的警官也试图走到这辆 SUV 前面,对司机大喊“停下,停车”。该官员估计当时车辆的行驶速度约为每小时 25 英里。

“布特林警官观察到司机直视前方,直接看着他,看起来他脸上没有任何情绪,”投诉说。

投诉称,这辆 SUV 超过了 Butryn,此时他看到车辆加速,直到它到达一个似乎停下的十字路口。

“然后车辆似乎迅速加速,因为 Butryn 警官听到轮胎尖叫,”投诉中写道。 “在这一点上,布特林警官很清楚,这是故意打击和伤害尽可能多的人的行为。”

投诉称,Butryn 看到车辆以锯齿形模式行驶,并看到“身体和物体”在飞。

“这就像 SUV 试图避开车辆,而不是人。车辆没有试图停下来,更不用说减速了,”一名目击者告诉一名官员,根据投诉。

在目睹 SUV 碾过人后,另一名警官在投诉中指出,Scholten 警官在车辆加速行驶时向其开枪并击中了 3 次。沃克夏警察局长丹·汤普森周日表示,当局认为这辆车没有开枪。

布鲁克斯向陌生人寻求帮助

据一名沃科夏居民称,布鲁克斯据称逃离现场后,向一名陌生人寻求帮助,并表示自己无家可归。

24 岁的 Daniel Rider 告诉 CNN,当他听到家中的门铃响起时,他并不知道周日发生了什么。

一名被当局确认为布鲁克斯的男子向莱德寻求帮助,称他无家可归,需要借一部手机拨打优步。赖德说布鲁克斯没有穿鞋,在寒冷的日子里只穿了一件 T 恤,所以他说他相信他,并允许他进入家中。

“他非常慌张,”Rider 谈到布鲁克斯时说,但在他们相遇时形容他很有礼貌。 Rider Brooks 做了一个三明治,并让他借了一件夹克,一边使用他的手机。

几分钟后,Rider 注意到警察在街上走来走去,并感觉这与 Brooks 有关系,因此 Rider 要求他走出去。当布鲁克斯打电话时,当莱德说附近的一位邻居向他发出警告时,两人正在外面。莱德然后去了布鲁克斯,要求取回他的手机和夹克,他说,布鲁克斯答应了。 Rider 进入家中,然后锁上了门。

不久之后,布鲁克斯开始“敲门”,莱德说,声称他把身份证留在了里面。 Rider 拒绝了,并告诉他他会寻找它。片刻之后,警察到达并逮捕了布鲁克斯。

Rider Brooks 已经打电话给他的母亲,让 Uber 来接他。 “优步在他被拘留一分钟后就出现了,”莱德说。 “所以我有时会想,如果他上了那辆车,会发生什么?”

布鲁克斯的保释金在周二首次出庭后被定为 500 万美元,法官称有潜在的逃亡风险。

根据法庭文件,布鲁克斯因涉嫌在本月早些时候撞倒一名自称是他孩子的母亲的妇女而被保释。

6人因伤死亡

周一,当局确定了 6 名遇难者中有 5 人是 79 岁的弗吉尼亚·索伦森(Virginia Sorenson);莉安娜·欧文,71 岁;塔玛拉杜兰德,52 岁;简·库利奇,52 岁;和威廉霍斯佩尔,81。

根据家人经过验证的 GoFundMe 页面,另一名受害者于周二被确认为 8 岁的杰克逊·斯帕克斯。目前尚不清楚杰克逊是否是检察官提到并由威斯康星州儿童医院确认的第六次游行死亡。

“今天下午,我们亲爱的杰克逊不幸因伤去世,”该页面的更新帖子周二说。

医院在一份声明中说,威斯康星州儿童医院收治的 16 名儿童中有两人于周一能够回家。声明说,共有13名儿童仍在住院治疗,其中6人情况危急,3人情况一般,4人情况良好。

据他的父亲唐·蒂格斯说,其中一名伤者是一名消防员的儿子,他刚刚从威斯康星州儿童医院重症监护室转出。

根据喀里多尼亚消防员协会的新闻稿,埃里克·蒂格斯 (Erick Tiegs) 与沃克夏南部高中游行乐队一起游行,当时他被 SUV 击中。

“他接受了修复股骨骨折的手术。他仍在接受其他损伤的治疗,包括放置胸腔引流管,并且正在继续评估是否有任何进一步的并发症。不幸的是,他有很长的康复之路他,”阅读新闻稿。
