Gerret Parks, a Bloomington man is behind bars facing charges for allegedly throwing objects at passing motorists. In one case, police say he threw a vise that broke through a windshield and smashed the driver's face. Police have counted 14 incidents and linked Parks to five of them, the Star Tribune reports.

The Bloomington man accused of injuring an Iraq War veteran by throwing a metal vise through his windshield will spend more than six years behind bars. Fox 9 reports Gerret Parks pled guilty to one count of felony first-degree assault.

Gerret Parks of Bloomington was sentenced to six years and three months in prison Tuesday morning after admitting to throwing dangerous items, including a bench vise, at oncoming vehicles in Bloomington. District Judge Lyonel Norris said he was left "speechless" by the crimes and described Parks as a "disturbed person."

Gerret Parks had been arrested in Minnesota and Wisconsin in the last two weeks but was released on bail both times. Police think he's responsible for several cases of heavy objects being thrown at passing vehicles, injuring drivers and damaging cars.

A man accused of throwing a vise into traffic and injuring a driver was arrested again just hours after he was released on bail. Police say he sped past a police station then failed to pull over as squad cars gave chase. When he finally stopped the vehicle, police say he continued to resist.

A St. Paul man has been arrested in connection with the death of another St. Paul man after an alleged car-surfing accident in Wisconsin Saturday. Shawn Swanson, 21, was reportedly riding on top of a moving car when he fell onto the pavement and died, the Burnett County, Wis., Sheriff's Office, said. The driver of the vehicle, Cole T. Fohrenkamm, 21, of St. Paul, was arrested on suspicion of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle.

They're not sure how it got there but police removed an alligator from a pond in Bloomington. The three-and-a-half foot reptile was found after a man complained the gator had hissed at his dog. A fisherman told Fox 9 "There's a big one back there, too."
