Decatur man indicted on robbery charge

Jan. 13—A Decatur man who allegedly stole a pack of cigarettes, beer and a snack at gunpoint from a Southeast Decatur business was indicted by a recent Morgan County grand jury on a robbery charge.

The grand jury indicted Kendall Jerrell Daniel, 28, for first-degree robbery in the Aug. 11, 2020, incident at the Busy Bee convenience store on 19th Avenue Southeast.

According to an affidavit filed by Decatur police Detective Sean Mukaddam, Daniel entered the store about 7:50 p.m. and asked for "single" cigarettes from the clerk. When the clerk said the store didn't sell singles, the defendant "brandished a pistol and racked the slide, to chamber a round."

"The clerk provided the male with a pack of cigarettes in an attempt to get him to leave," Mukaddam wrote in the affidavit. The victim said the male told him "I will shoot you if you tell anyone," according to the affidavit. "The male walked out of the store and took three beers and two Slim Jims."

About three hours later, Decatur police responded to a call reporting a man with a gun near 16th Avenue Southeast and Wadsworth Road. The affidavit said Daniel met the description of the man who had robbed the Busy Bee. He was taken into custody for public intoxication and resisting arrest.

The following day, detectives were able to confirm through video surveillance that Daniel was the same man who brandished the firearm and took the items from the store, according to Mukaddam. Daniel told police the clerk owed him money so he took the items, according to the affidavit.

Daniel has since been released from the Morgan County Jail on $40,000 bond.

His court-appointed attorney, Brian White, was not available for comment.
