(KNZA)--The man charged in connection with a hit-and-run in April, that left a Horton woman badly hurt, made his first court appearance Tuesday.
WIBW-TV reports that a preliminary hearing date is now set for 21-year-old Nicholas Blaha.
That is scheduled for September 5.
21-year-old Amber Wilhelm was struck early April 14 at the intersection of 12th and Bluemont, in Manhattan.
Authorities say the Kansas State University student was stopped in a crosswalk, and was bent over, when she was struck by Blaha's pickup truck that was westbound on Bluemont Avenue.
Blaha earlier this month turned himself in to Riley County authorities on a warrant for aggravated burglary.
He's currently free on a $20,000 bond.
