Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This is a direct appeal by defendant-appellant from conviction by a jury of three counts of aggravated robbery (K.S.A. 21-3427), five counts of kidnapping (K.S.A. 21-3420[b]), and one count of aggravated weapons violation (K.S.A. 21-4202). On February 28, 1976, three black males robbed the Mr. Steak restaurant in Lawrence, Kansas, and the family of four that was eating in the otherwise empty restaurant. One of the men forced the cook to open the unlocked safe, another took the billfold of the man who was dining with his family and the third man took the contents of the cash register from the waitress on duty. While this was going on, the man obtaining the contents of the safe discharged his shotgun over the cook's head. The robbery being substantially complete, the four customers and the waitress were forced into a walk-in refrigerator, told to remain there and the door was then slammed shut. The refrigerator was not locked. After five to ten minutes, the occupants of the refrigerator ventured out and found the cook calling the police. The three robbers had departed.
