- A 19-year-old Chicago man has pleaded guilty to burglary in connection with an attempted break-in during which he was shot.
Anthony Robinson was shot in the leg by the homeowner as he tried to break in and steal liquor, according to police.
Robinson was sentenced to two years probation and community service.
The homeowner, 81-year-old Homer Wright, was initially charged with unlawful use of a weapon in the case. That charged was later dropped.
They've got him dead bang (pun intended) on the burglary, yet zero prison time. Way to go Cook County. Hopefully, Mr. Wright aims a bit higher next time.
