A 41-year-old Evanston woman is facing attempted first-degree murder and three aggravated battery counts over a July 26 incident at Ravenswood and Ridge in Edgewater. Prosecutors allege a dispute over a failure to yield escalated until she drove into a 61-year-old pedestrian, who suffered a traumatic brain injury and is expected to need long-term care. A judge granted the state's detention petition; the charges are allegations and have not been proven in court.
