A California teen is facing a felony count of second-degree recklessly endangering safety for allegedly almost running over a group of people earlier this month on Shawano Lake.
Anthony B. Kotula Jr., 19, of Eureka, is accused of crashing into an ice shack on the lake Jan. 3 and nearly striking a group of four people as he sped away from the scene.
Kotula could face a maximum 10 years in prison and a $25,000 fine if convicted.
He is also charged with a felony count of second or subsequent offense possession of marijuana, which carries a possible maximum of 3 1/2 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
He also faces a misdemeanor count of criminal damage to property for damage to the shack and fishing equipment inside.
Kotula posted a $500 cash bond and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on March 16.
