Guilty Plea Expected in Armed Robbery Case
The guilty plea would cancel a jury trial tentatively slated for July in connection with a series of felonies, including armed robbery.
A guilty plea is expected in the case against a 28-year-old Brookfield man, charged with several felonies after police say he fired shots at an acquaintance during a robbery in the victim's home.
Evan Dunlap originally pleaded not guilty in April after being charged with armed robbery with threat of force and three other felonies in the March 26 incident. Records on the Wisconsin Court System Circuit Court Access website show a not guilty plea is expected by June 25, canceling a jury trial slated for August.
The victim in the robbery told police that Dunlap had been invited over to his home on North 68th Street in Milwaukee. After socializing for a while, Dunlap went into the kitchen and then called the victim into the room, where he held him up at gunpoint. He fired shots into the wall, then fled, later asking the victim by phone and text not to pursue the matter with police.
