A 23-year-old Wellsville man was found guilty Friday of one count of aggravated robbery in connection with an incident at Douglas State Fishing Lake.

Donnie Ray Michael Plouffe pleaded no contest to the charge Friday in a deal with the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office. Prosecutor Eve Kemple agreed to dismiss Plouffe’s aggravated battery charge after he entered his plea, according to court records.

Plouffe was arrested after a 32-year-old man reported he’d been “struck several times and had property stolen” between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. June 24, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Sgt. Kristen Dymacek said at the time.

The stolen property is listed in court documents as a backpack and its contents.

The victim made the report from an apartment in Baldwin City, Dymacek said, and responding officers found him with “several large lacerations.” He was taken for treatment to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and released the same day.

Plouffe allegedly committed the crime with a gun. For that reason, the state requested a $50,000 bond. He has remained in the Douglas County Jail since his arrest.

Two weeks ago, the district attorney’s office charged a second person, 23-year-old Baldwin City resident Breanna Denise Parsons, with aggravated battery and aggravated robbery in connection with the incident.

Dymacek said last month that after investigating further, the sheriff’s office had reason to believe Parsons “also participated with Plouffe in the incident,” and a judge signed a probable cause warrant for her arrest. She was apprehended July 27 and booked into the Douglas County Jail on a $25,000 bond. She was released from jail Saturday after posting bail.

Plouffe is scheduled for sentencing on Sept. 11. Parsons is scheduled to have a preliminary hearing on Aug. 17.
