MANHATTAN — A man arrested in a series of thefts that led to a nearly four-hour lockdown of the Kansas State University campus has reached a deal with prosecutors.
The Manhattan Mercury (bit.ly/1ZbWnbh) reports that 20-year-old Johnathon Ryan Elliott has pleaded no contest to one charge of aggravated robbery. In exchange, prosecutors agreed to drop five other counts.
Prosecutors also agreed to seek the standard sentence, which could range from about 5 to 19 years in prison.
