(KAIR)--A Leavenworth man plead guilty last week to charges related to the pistol-whipping and robbery of a man inside a Leavenworth apartment.
According to a release from the office of Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, 22-year-old Antonio Nelson plead guilty, in Leavenworth County District Court, to aggravated robbery and aggravated burglary charges. Nelson is set for sentencing on the afternoon of September 27.
According to court documents cited in the release, Nelson went to the victim's apartment on January 3; and, approximately 30 minutes after arriving, Nelson told the victim he was thirsty. When the victim returned with a glass of water, Nelson, and a man wearing a ski mask, were waiting for him. Nelson hit the victim with a gun and would continue pistol-whipping him. Eventually, Nelson grabbed a rope, placed it around the victim's neck, and tightened the rope until the victim lost conciousness.
When the victim came to, he discovered multiple guns had been taken from his apartment.
