Ronnie Ganadonegro, Convenience Store Robbery, New Mexico 2013

A convenience store robbery in New Mexico has ended in a guilty plea for the suspect. On December 30, 2013, Ronnie Ganadonegro, a 38-year-old member of the Navajo Nation, robbed the Tiis’ Tsoh Mini Mart in Alamo, New Mexico.

Ganadonegro was arrested on January 23, 2014, after a criminal complaint was filed against him. He subsequently was indicted and charged with one count of robbery.

According to the plea agreement, Ganadonegro approached the counter in the convenience store, pointed an air pistol at the cashier, and demanded the money from the cash register. When the cashier opened the cash register, Ganadonegro grabbed the cash out of the register and fled on foot from the convenience store.

Ganadonegro has been in federal custody since his arrest and remains detained pending his sentencing hearing, which has yet to be scheduled.

At sentencing, Ganadonegro faces a statutory maximum penalty of 15 years in federal prison followed by a term of supervised release to be determined by the court.

This case was investigated by the Albuquerque office of the FBI, and the Crownpoint office of the Navajo Nation Division of Public Safety, and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Novaline D. Wilson and Marisa A. Lizarraga.

Ronnie Ganadonegro, 38, a member of the Navajo Nation who resides in Alamo, N.M., pleaded guilty this morning to a robbery charge. He is currently being held in federal custody pending sentencing.
