P. v. Brown CA3
While on probation, defendant Keandrey Marquis Brown accosted an elderly woman as she loaded items she had just purchased from a nearby store into her car; he shot her twice in the side after she refused to relinquish her purse, severely injuring her. He later stole a bike and fled the scene with her purse. A jury found him guilty of robbery, elder abuse, and petty theft of the bicycle (Pen. Code, §§ 211, 368, subd. (b)(1), 484, subd. (a)), but acquitted him of attempted murder (§§ 664, 187, subd. (a)). The jury found true that in the commission of the robbery, defendant personally and intentionally discharged a firearm, which caused great bodily injury or death (§ 12022.53, subds. (c) & (d)), personally used a firearm (§§ 12022.5, subd. (a)(1), 12022.53, subd. (b)), and personally inflicted great bodily injury (§ 12022.7, subd. (a)).
