A sixth victim, a child, has died after a man on a mission to "strike and hurt as many people as possible" drove an SUV into a Christmas parade route on Sunday, authorities say. Police say Darrell Brooks Jr., 39, was fleeing a domestic disturbance where a knife was reported when he rammed an SUV into the parade route Sunday night, injuring more than 60 people. Court commissioner Kevin Costello said he was disturbed by detectives who said Brooks' actions at the parade appeared intentional. "I've not seen anything like this in my very long career," Costello said. The criminal written complaint contains a chilling observation from one police officer who watched Brooks pass by several options to exit the parade route, and instead increase his speed: "At this point, it was clear . . . that this was an intentional act to strike and hurt as many people as possible," the complaint said.
