Two days after the rampage at a parade in the US town of Waukesha in the greater Milwaukee area, another victim is to be lamented. The driver, who had multiple criminal records, is charged with six murders.
ZTwo days after a car driver fatally struck a Christmas parade in Wisconsin, the death toll rose to six. A child died from his injuries, prosecutor Susan Opper said at a court hearing on Tuesday. The alleged perpetrator is therefore now accused of sixfold murder.
The man raced in a red SUV in a Christmas parade in the 70,000-inhabitant city of Waukesha in the greater Milwaukee area on Sunday. Five people died on the spot and dozen others were injured, including numerous children.
The investigators do not assume a terrorist background. Rather, the 39-year-old perpetrator apparently fled after a domestic dispute.
