A 22-year-old Indiana man who allegedly struck a man with his car as he fled the scene of a crash on the city’s Far South Side appeared in court Sunday on charges of attempted murder.
Manuel Repasi, of Hammond, was held in lieu of $800,000 bail during a hearing Sunday before Judge Maria Kuriakos Ciesil at the Leighton Criminal Court Building.
Prosecutors said Repasi crashed into a vehicle near the 3400 block of East 106th Street, sped away from the scene and hid inside a nearby business.
He then allegedly punched a man with a set of keys before driving away and threatening two more people.
As he fled down an alley, Repasi repeatedly hit a man with his car, fracturing his legs and feet, according to prosecutors.

Repasi is scheduled to appear in court again Friday.
