HILLSDALE, MI (WTVB) – The last of four Battle Creek residents between the ages of 18 and 23 who were arrested following a Camden Township business break in and police pursuit on January 31 was sentenced this week in Hillsdale County Circuit Court.
23-year-old Treshaun Omeirr Boykins entered a guilty plea to breaking and entering a building with intent to commit larceny.
In exchange for his plea, prosecutors dismissed a second charge of breaking and entering as well as counts of third degree fleeing from a police officer, assaulting, resisting and obstructing a police officer and receiving and concealing stolen property.
Boykins was given two years probation and credit for seven days already served in jail. It was his first criminal offense. The Hillsdale Daily News reports Judge Sara S. Lisznyai warned Boykins he would be sent to the Twin County Community Probation Center if he did not follow the terms of his probation.
The other three suspects were 18 and 19 years old. Dontay Dequan Banks, Milton Tyier Hudson and Jeramiah Javon Smith all entered guilty pleas to breaking and entering a building with intent to commit larceny. They were sentenced under terms of the Holmes Youthful Trainee Act.
A fifth suspect was a juvenile. The Michigan State Police said at the time that speeds got up to as high as 125 miles an hour during the pursuit after the break-in.
The pursuit went into Branch County and eventually traveled north along I-69 before exiting at U.S. 12.
It then went south on Willowbrook Road before the suspect vehicle was stopped following a second pit maneuver attempt by a State Police Trooper.
Two of the suspects were apprehended following verbal orders by police. The other three were captured thanks to State Police K-9 “Solo”.
