Lewiston suspect charged

Sean A. Lee, 25, Lewiston, was formally charged with first degree robbery in superior court Aug. 12. Lee, who was arrested Aug. 7 by deputies who found him tied up on Main Street in LaCrosse, is charged with robbing Larry Garrett of LaCrosse. The deputy’s arrest report alleged Lee took Garrett’s wallet and threw it in his Blazer in an attempt to leave LaCrosse. The suspect was pulled out of the Blazer by Garretts cousins and tied up.

Filing of a formal charge Aug. 12 means pre-trial conditions for release, including a court order to stay out of LaCrosse and posting of $25,000 bail, remain in effect.
