Charges filed in robbery at Sonic

Douglas County prosecutors on Monday charged a 26-year-old Lawrence man in connection with a January robbery at a Sonic restaurant in North Lawrence.

Antonio M. Douglas faces two charges of aggravated robbery and a misdemeanor charge of criminal damage. Lawrence police arrested him last weekend on a warrant.

Police had been searching for a suspect after two employees late on Jan. 23 reported a man armed with a handgun came inside the business, 1003 N. Third St. He took cash from the business and also an iPhone from one of the employees. The misdemeanor count is for allegedly damaging the iPhone.

Douglas made his first appearance in district court Monday afternoon. A judge set his bond at $50,000. He will appear in front of District Judge Sally Pokorny next Monday.
