Kidnapping:
Abench warrant has been issued for one of two people who allegedly robbed and kidnapped a Lincoln County woman recently.
Formal felony charges of robbery with a dangerous weapon and kidnapping were filed in Lincoln County District Court Jan. 12againstCheyenneBriana Lewis, 26, of Stroud and Khyron Daun Sharif, 32, of Chandler.
A$75,000 bench warrant has been issued for the arrest of Sharif. The warrant was issued the same day charges were filed.
Lewis, who was arrested and transported to the Lincoln County Jail in Chandler, appeared before Special Judge Emily Mueller on Jan. 6. Judge Mueller set her bond at $100,000.
In the robbery with a dangerous weapon count, Lewis and Sharif are accused on Jan. 5 this year in Lincoln County of acting jointly and willfully to take from Tristan Fuller personal property consisting of lawful United States currency which was in Fuller’s possession and on her person and in her immediate presence. The charge further alleges this was done against Fuller’s will by threatening her with a dangerous weapon, a baton and causing her to fear she was in immediate danger of unlawful injury or death.
The kidnapping charge against the two alleges that on that same day they acted jointly and forcibly and without authority seizing and confining Fuller with the intent to cause her to be confined against her will.
In a probable cause affidavit filed in the case, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Detective George Kelly Coleman states he responded to a call from Tristan Fuller calling and reporting that her vehicle had been stolen. She advised that Sharif and Lewis had hit her with a baton and stolen her vehicle.
Coleman notes in the affidavit that Com. Center had dispatched Sac and Fox Officer Andrew Nguyen to an address on 3520 Road in Stroud because all on duty Lincoln County patrol deputies were on other calls. An ambulance was also dispatched.
The detective stated that while he was en route, Com Center advised that Lewis was possibly at a location on E. 840 Road, Stroud, which was less than a mile from the original call’s address. He also noted that Stroud Police Officer Damon Bounds arrived and located Lewis at that address.
Lewis confirmed her name but claimed her boyfriend had kicked her out of the car near that house so she walked there to get help.
Officer Nguyen reportedly went to a second address after the ambulance had transported Fuller to Saints Hospital in Shawnee. Nguyen informed Coleman that Fuller told him she met with Lewis and Sharif at what she believed is Lewis’s home.
She told Nguyen that the two hit her with a baton and forced her into the passenger seat. The two drove her around a few minutes and she was able to escape the car and ran to the first house she saw to get help.
As the investigation continued, Coleman placed Lewis under arrest. Officer Bounds transported Lewis to the Lincoln County Jail in Chandler.
Coleman states he went to Saints hospital in Shawnee and spoke with Fuller. He said she had a large bruise just below her elbow on her left arm and that appeared misshapen. She had other bruises on her forehead and the detective said Fuller appeared to be in severe pain.
He said Fuller advised him they took $420 from her pants pocket, about $100 from her jacket pocket, another $190 from an App on her phone, her purse and wallet that contained multiple items.
