Spooky case of mistaken identity in robbbery case

[davebg 0]

The 17-year-old girl who was wrongly locked in jail for seven days might be feeling terribly lucky.

 

Amanda Sylvester might still be in jail, facing criminal charges that included aiding and abetting a robbery, were it not for an anonymous tip to a Crimestopper hotline.

 

Her arrest and arraignment stemmed from mistaken identity, according to Lieutenant Rick Ryan of the North Platte Police Department. One of the men involved in the recent robbery of a Kwik Shop identified Sylvester through a photograph, but said he didn’t know her name.
