فَرَمَى — he threw away. fa- (so/then) on a past-tense verb meaning 'he threw/cast'. The 'he' doer is inside the verb form, and the verb here governs its object through a preposition rather than directly, which is why the next word carries 'with/at'.

وَرَمَى بِهِ وَرَاءَ الحَائِطِ
He threw it behind the wall.
وَرَمَى — and he threw. A linking 'and' is fused to a past-tense verb whose 'he' subject is built in. The 'and' joins this throwing to the chain of actions before it. The verb then leans on the preposition after it to reach what was thrown.
