A checkered occasion

110833861

At 3:25 p.m. June 21, law enforcement officials ventured to Checkers, 2008 W. Oregon Ave., for a report of a robbery. The location’s general manager said an ex-employee had entered the business without permission by pushing her aside and she blocked the door, made her way to the back room office, took cash resting on a desk, placed the money in her pants pocket, and marched to the front drive-through cash register to remove additional dollars, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The overseer ordered the supposed aggressor to vacate the premises and said the former worker threw the money all over the eatery, bent down, and scooped up an undetermined amount of the spoils before exiting.

On Friday, police detained Shakeara Parker and charged the 25-year-old with simple assault, burglary, criminal trespassing, robbery, theft by unlawful taking, and theft by receiving stolen property. She posted her $5,000 bail Saturday and awaits a July 12 preliminary hearing.
