A Cleveland man was charged with using a firearm to rob a Family Dollar store.
Donathan Kidd, 21, was indicted on one count of Hobbs Act robbery and one count of using a firearm in a crime of violence, said Acting U.S. Attorney David A. Sierleja.
Kidd robbed the Family Dollar store at 14235 Kinsman Road in Cleveland on April 29. He used a firearm during the robbery, according to the indictment.
If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense and the characteristics of the violations. In all cases, the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and, in most cases, it will be less than the maximum.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian McDonough following an investigation by the ATF and Cleveland Division of Police.
An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
Kidd’s exact sentence or outcome was not specified in the indictment.
