(KAIR)--A Junction City runaway, arrested in October in connection with the armed burglary of an Atchison County residence, is going to prison.
Atchison County Attorney Jerry Kuckelman tells MSC News Taggart Lee was sentenced Friday in Atchison County Court to three years in prison for his involvement in a robbery last summer.
Lee, who was 17 at the time of his arrest, is accused of playing a role in a burglary at 4123 Ottawa Road.
A woman, planning to clean that residence, arrived there only to find a burglary in progress.
Atchison County authorities at the time said the woman was held at knife point.
Lee, originally from Atchison, had been reported as a runaway from Junction City prior to his arrest.
Two other teens were also accused of playing a role in the crime.
