HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Three of four charged in association with a robbery at knife point outside Walmart have now entered pleas in the case.

The case starts with the suspects drinking and smoking marijuana and decided they needed more cash for cigarettes. They allegedly went to Walmart and tried to break into vehicles, but then spotted the young men on the side of the store. That’s when two of them wrapped their shirts around their heads, pulled a knife and robbed the four of $85.

They were in a vehicle allegedly driven by Shelby Anderson. She was detained at the time, but not arrested with the other three. But, was taken into custody later.

Her case is still pending.
