St. Louis, MO - Natez Fisher, 18, of St. Louis, MO, was arrested this morning stemming from a two-count indictment charging him with one count of interference with commerce by robbery and one count of use of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence.
According to the Indictment, on April 16, 2018, Natez Fisher placed an ad on Facebook Marketplace for the sale of a gaming system. S.K. agreed to purchase the item and met with Fisher at which time Fisher pointed a firearm at S.K., demanded S.K.’s money, and shot him.
If convicted, the robbery charge carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine and the defendant could face an additional consecutive mandatory minimum of ten years because the defendant shot the victim during the robbery. In determining the actual sentences, a judge is required to consider the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, which provide recommended sentencing ranges.
This case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Jennifer Roy is handling the case for the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
As is always the case, charges set forth in the complaint are merely accusations and do not constitute proof of guilt. Every defendant is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty.
