A federal grand jury has indicted a Birmingham man in the
2013 armed robbery of two Talladega businesses.
The indictment – announced Monday by U.S. Attorney Joyce
White Vance, FBI Special Agent in Charge Roger C. Stanton and Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives Special Agent in Charge Glenn N. Anderson – was filed
in U.S. District Court against 26 year old William Brownlow.
The three-count indictment charges Brownlow with robbing
both the Shoe Show on East Battle Street and the Wesco gas station and
convenience store on Fort Lashley Avenue on Nov. 12, 2013. The indictment also
charges Brownlow with brandishing a firearm during the Wesco robbery.
The maximum prison penalty for the robbery charge is 20
years. The charge of brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence carries a
minimum mandatory prison sentence of seven years, which must be served after completion
of any other sentence imposed for the crime.
ATF investigated the case against Brownlow.
