A number of defendants are scheduled for Plea Court at the Indiana County Courthouse today, including one man who was involved in a two-day crime spree in Indiana and White Township last year.
20-year-old Spencer Hayes of Philadelphia will plead to multiple charges of robbery, conspiracy to robbery, terroristic threats, recklessly endangering another person, theft, receiving stolen property, resisting arrest, fleeing or eluding an officer, and numerous traffic offenses.
Hayes was involved with two other men whose cases are also in the court system. The three men are accused of forcibly entering a home on Center Street, strip-searching a man and woman and stealing their cell phones and a small amount of drug-related items, and then crashing a stolen car during a police pursuit the next day.
The other defendants are Frank Williams IV and Thomas Lindsay, both of whom are also from Philadelphia. Williams is scheduled for a pretrial conference next Monday before President Judge Thomas Bianco, and for Criminal Call next month. Lindsay, who is also charged with attempted homicide for shooting at a man in a drive-by in Indiana Borough, is scheduled for Criminal Call next month.
