FLORENCE ? A day after being sentenced to 10 years in prison for robbery and talking a judge into allowing him to stay free for a few days to help a friend, a Crescent Springs man was facing another robbery charge.

Robert E. Maxwell, 18, is accused of robbing the Speedway gasoline station in the 7000 block of Burlington Pike (Ky. 18) about 5 a.m. Thursday, using a gun he stole in a burglary the evening before, police say.

A man entered the gas station, pointed the gun at the clerk and asked for cash, Florence police Capt. Linny Cloyd said. The man fled on foot with a small amount of money. Maxwell was arrested a mile away about 7:30 a.m., Cloyd said.

Just hours earlier, Maxwell was sentenced to 10 years in prison after he pleaded guilty in Boone Circuit Court to robbing the Speedway gas station on U.S. 42 in June.

Instead of going straight to prison, Maxwell asked for a few days to help a friend who he said had been in a car accident, Boone Commonwealth?s Attorney Linda Tally Smith said. Senior Judge Kevin Horne granted the request over prosecutors? objections, Smith said

Maxwell was released on a $50,000 property bond posted by his grandfather and sentenced to home incarceration after he agreed to turn himself in March 30 to begin serving the sentence.

Police say Maxwell stole a shotgun from a home on Dorcas Avenue Wednesday evening, used it to rob the gas station, then returned to the Dorcas Avenue area, where police found and arrested him.

?He immediately asked for an attorney,? Cloyd said.

Maxwell is being held in Boone County jail on charges of first-degree robbery in the first degree and first-degree burglary, in the first degree, both class B felonies punishable by between 10 to and 20 years in prison.

Neither bond nor an arraignment date had been set as of Thursday evening, but Cloyd said it was unlikely Maxwell would be released on bond this time. A deputy at the Boone County jail said he?d likely be arraigned Friday via video.

In the June robbery, police said Maxwell threatened to ?kill everyone? in the U.S. 42 Speedway if the clerk did not give him money, although he did not have a gun.

Because a gun was used in Thursday?s robbery, if convicted Maxwell would be considered a repeat felony offender. Smith said he would likely face a tougher sentence to be served consecutively with his current sentence.

No injuries were reported in either burglary.
