Video After The Jump
MILWAUKEE (AP) — A Burger King robbery that left a Milwaukee girl dead was staged, investigators allege.
Sixteen-year-old cashier Niesha Harris-Bracell was shot to death during the robbery Jan. 2. Video surveillance showed a man with a gun leaning into the drive-thru window & another Burger Kind employee opening fire on him.
The man who leaned into the drive-thru window was Antoine Edwards. His 16-year-old daughter worked at the Burger King with Harris-Bracell.
The three of them hatched a plan to steal money from the restaurant by staging a robbery. The night of Jan. 2, Edwards drove up to the drive-thru. Harris-Bracell was supposed to hand him the register but took too long. Edwards grew impatient & leaned into the window with his gun.
Another employee who wasn’t in on the robbery opened fire on Edwards & hit Harris-Bracell by mistake.
The complaint charged Edwards with felony murder, contributing to the delinquency of a minor with death as a consequence & being a felon in possession of a firearm. Online court records indicated he was in custody.
Derrick Ellis, the employee who allegedly shot Harris-Bracell, was charged Jan. 6 with being a felon in possession of a firearm. He remains at large.
