A third woman told ABC7 the same man attacked her near Navy Pier and she says she has been in contact with as many as twelve possible victims.

His bond was set at $40,000 Sunday after a judge said he is a "danger to the community." The judge also ordered Manuel-Reyes be put on an electronic monitoring device if he does post bond.



His next court date is Wednesday.
