An Indianapolis man is under arrest for murder after police claim he intentionally drove over and killed another man outside a bar two days after being released from jail.
Police arrested an Indianapolis man for murder after they claim he intentionally drove over and killed another man outside a bar just two days after being released from jail. On Thursday, detectives from the Indianapolis Police Department's Violent Crimes Unit announced the arrest of 33-year-old Felipe Maguellal. Police said VCU detectives located and arrested Maguellal who is alleged to have been involved in the Oct. 19 homicide of Perry Banks. Just after midnight Oct. 19.
Police told FOX 59 Maguellal allegedly got into his SUV and intentionally drove toward a crowd of people, running over and killing Banks, who was reportedly trying to deescalate the situation. 'I hope any criminal out there, anyone thinking of committing a criminal act thinks twice because the IMPD won’t stop, and we will find you,' IMPD Officer Tommy Thompson told FOX 59.
Court records showed that the bond amount stemmed from the fact that Mageullal also had a pending criminal case of intimidation, illegal entry and drug charges in Johnson County in September. However, for unknown reasons, Maguellal's bond was promptly lowered to $15,000, and he was released from jail just two days before Bank's murder.
