As a result of that conviction, Brooks was arrested 10 years later when he failed to obey sex offender laws. He bailed out on the charge but never returned to court, according to police in Sparks, Nevada. A warrant was issued on Aug. 15, 2016 for that failure to appear.

The suspect was involved in a domestic disturbance minutes prior to the deadly crash, police said.
Besides the five killed, 48 were hurt when the suspect "intentionally drove his maroon SUV through barricades into a crowd of people," police said.
One officer fired shots to try to stop the driver, but stopped shooting because so many parade-goers were present, police said. No one was hurt by the gunfire and the officer is on administrative leave, police said.
Police said the suspect acted alone and this was not a terrorist event.
Officials said this "Norman Rockwell-type Christmas parade" has been held for decades.
