UPDATED —
We have more information on Darrell E. Brooks:
BREAKING: Law enforcement sources confirm that the suspect in the Waukesha parade incident is a 38-year-old domestic abuse suspect who just posted $1,000 cash bond in a domestic abuse and bail jumping case on Friday.

The suspect, a black male, also faces charges of recklessly endangering safety and possession of a firearm by a felon from an incident in July 2020. While he was awaiting trial on that case, he was arrested for domestic abuse this month and STILL allowed to post bail.

Sources indicate the suspect was involved in a violent incident in Waukesha, possibly a stabbing, earlier this afternoon and fled from the scene.

Correction, the suspect is 39 years old, not 38.

Note, this information has not been released via the Waukesha Police Department but we thought it was important enough to share.
The person Waukesha Police have in custody following the horrific incident where a red SUV drove through a Christmas parade killing five and wounding over 40 people (this number could also change as police learn more) is reportedly Darrell E. Brooks.
Karol Markowicz released the information:
Darrell E. Brooks, black male, late 30s is the suspect in custody in Waukesha.

This link goes to his criminal record:
I have no take on this story. I am sharing information. These are the factual details. The one detail I have that is unconfirmed is his Twitter account which, anyway, is not that interesting and hasn’t been updated in a long time.
