Man pleads guilty to casino parking lot robbery

HANOVER, Md. (AP) — A Prince George’s County man has pleaded guilty to committing a robbery at the Maryland Live! Casino parking garage.

The Capital of Annapolis (http://bit.ly/WTedky ) reports 28-year-old Errick Lewis of Temple Hills pleaded guilty Thursday.

On Thursday, a state prosecutor said that on the morning of April 5, Lewis approached a man and woman who were sitting in a car in the casino parking garage and demanded money. Assistant State’s Attorney Karen Anderson-Scott said Lewis pointed a weapon at the man’s chest and pressed it to his neck when he dropped the money. Police later learned the weapon was a pellet gun.

Lewis faces up to 15 years in prison when he is sentenced Oct 29. Lewis’ attorney declined to comment on the case when reached by telephone Friday.
