(KAIR)--An Atchison teenager charged in connection with a fatal shooting at a Lawrence bar has pleaded guilty to several charges as part of a plea agreement.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports 19-year-old Caiden Clem pleaded guilty last Thursday in Douglas County District Court to three counts of aggravated assault and one count of attempted trafficking of contraband while in custody.
Prosecutors allege Clem fired several rounds into the air outside The Hawk early January 17th. Another 19-year-old, Daitron Daniels Strickland, then allegedly fired toward a group near the bar’s entrance, killing 18-year-old Aidan Knowles and injuring a 16-year-old.
Two additional counts against Clem were dismissed under the plea agreement.
Clem is scheduled to be sentenced January 5th and remains in the Douglas County Jail on a $500,000 bond.
Daniels Strickland is scheduled to be arraigned November 12th. He faces charges of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted first-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon by a felon.
