The suspect accused of mowing down a crowd of holiday revelers in Wisconsin was captured in a doorbell camera before his arrest pleading for help and telling a resident he was waiting for an Uber, according to video obtained Monday by NBC News.
The Nov. 21 video also shows authorities arriving at the Waukesha home and telling the suspect, Darrell Brooks, 39, to put his hands up.
Hmmm. It's the tail-end of November, it's Wisconsin, and this guy's wearing a t-shirt.
A timestamp on the video shows that it was recorded just after 5 p.m. local time, about 20 minutes after Brooks allegedly tore through parade route barricades, killing five people and injuring dozens more.
"I called an Uber and I'm supposed to be waiting for it over here, but I don't know when it's coming," he can be heard saying. "Can you call it for me please? I'm homeless."
In an interview, Rider, who'd been away on a hunting trip and was watching football when the crash occurred, said he had no idea about what had just happened blocks away.
He said he invited Brooks inside and gave him a jacket, made him a sandwich and let him use his phone.
"All of a sudden, I look outside my street and I see a few cop cars drive by and I'm getting extra nervous," he said.

Oh well; he'll be nice and comfy in jail. I wonder if they serve turkey for dinner ?
