Peoria Woman Accused Of Trying To Run Man Down With Truck

BURBANK, IL — A Peoria woman was arrested after she was found to be driving on a revoked license during a traffic altercation, prosecutors said. Kayla Martin, 30, appeared before Cook County Judge John Mahoney on a felony charge of driving with a revoked license.

Burbank police answered a call of someone driving a Penske truck who was trying to run down a man in the 8400 block of South Cicero Avenue on June 11. The prosecutor said the driver, identified as Martin, was driving on a revoked license for DUI.

Martin has an outstanding warrant for unlawful use of a credit card from Florida, but they cannot be served in Illinois, the prosecutor said.

Bail was set at $25,000. Martin is due back in court June 26 in Bridgeview.
