An eight-year-old boy is the sixth dead. Other injured are still in critical condition. The prosecutor also said a total of 62 people were injured.

The child’s death was announced Tuesday when the accused, Darrell Brooks, first appeared in court. Brooks was charged five times with intentional manslaughter. The prosecutor also announced a sixth indictment over the child’s recent death. If convicted, Brooks could spend the rest of his life in prison.

Initially it was thought to be an attack, but in the end there was no terrorist motive. Brooks tore through town after a report of “domestic violence.”

Brooks’ bail was set at $5 million (4.44 million euros), an amount that the judge said is “extremely high”, “but it is an extraordinary case”.
