Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by Defendant-appellant, Jerry E. Cunningham, appeals from convictions by a jury of aggravated robbery (K.S.A. 21-3427) and aggravated assault (K.S.A. 21-3410). The charges stemmed from a robbery of a cashier of the Jayhawk Theater in Topeka on April 23, 1975. The cashier, Mrs. Helen Tucker, testified that sometime around 9 p.m. a person, who was later identified by her as defendant, came to the cashier's window, produced a revolver, pointed it through the window at her and demanded money. Mrs. Tucker gave the defendant $70.00 or $80.00 in bills, after which defendant ran from the theater. Defendant was observed by two other witnesses who were on the sidewalk at the time. One of these witnesses, Roger Pickering, saw defendant enter a pickup truck, leave it quickly and then run to a taxicab which he entered. At this point Mr. Pickering observed the police arrive and remove defendant from the taxicab. Another state's witness, Mr. Epefanio [222 Kan. 705]
