Plea Deal For Rochester Man Charged With 2 Shootings on Same Day
Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News) - A first-degree attempted murder charge was among the charges dismissed through a plea agreement worked out Wednesday with one of the two men accused of participating in two shootings and an attempted robbery in Rochester last fall.
20-year-old Anthony Lavell Frazier and the other man were arrested several days after shots were fired into an empty vehicle parked along Chardonnay Lane Northeast and a man was injured by shattered glass in a second shooting on 21st Avenue Southeast on September 25. Court records also show both men were also charged with attempting to rob a person at a Southeast Rochester mobile home park on September 22.
Under the terms of Frazier's plea deal with Olmsted County prosecutors, he entered a guilty plea to a charge of aiding and abetting a drive-by shooting involving an occupied vehicle. All of the other charges will be dismissed. Those counts include the attempted murder charge, two counts of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon, and first-degree aggravated robbery.
Frazier is scheduled to be sentenced in October. The plea deal does not list a recommended sentence.
He is currently in the Olmsted County jail with his bail set at $250,000.
