News » Receipt helped crack Burger King robbery case
July 29, 2010
A receipt that was several blocks away from the scene of an armed robbery helped lead investigators to four suspects.
Court records say after they held up to the Burger King in the town of Buchanan last Saturday night, three men started throwing some of their clothes, and other items, out of the getaway car.
They say a receipt from an auto parts store in Appleton belonged to 37-year-old John Hoskins. His girlfriend, 24-year-old Trisha Kasperek, used to work at the fast food restaurant, and she's accused of helping plan the robbery. Records say she was driving the getaway car.
Hoskins is accused of using a plastic gun to keep a group of employees and their friends on the ground, outside of the restaurant. Court commissioner Brian Figy set Hoskins' bond at $100,000 yesterday.
27-year-old Samuel Resen and 20-year-old Tyrone Leviston-Shaw are also in custody.
All four are charged with armed robbery and six counts of felony theft. |
