The lawyer for an 18-year-old man who faces charges of aggravated assault, kidnapping and attempted aggravated robbery asked Monday in Freeborn County District Court that a bail study be ordered for his client.

The bail study would determine if a conditional bail of $75,000 or an unconditional bail of $200,000 would be appropriate for Shane Joel Robinson-Schulter of St. Paul, who local authorities arrested Jan. 3.

Robinson-Schulter’s arrest came after the South Central Drug Investigative Unit and the SWAT team were activated to a residence on Ruble Avenue in Albert Lea.

According to court papers, the events on the day of the arrest unfolded as follows:

At 9:18 a.m. Jan. 3, an officer of the Albert Lea Police Department was dispatched to the Kwik Trip store on East Main Street and Garfield Avenue in Albert Lea after a man who was bleeding profusely from his head walked into the store.

The man, 44, from Fridley, stated that early that morning he had driven down to Albert Lea with two men in his green 1999 Pontiac Sunfire.

“He stated that before coming to the Kwik Trip store he had been pistol whipped, beat on and about his head, face and shoulders with a 9 mm pistol,” court documents state.

The man was taken to the Albert Lea Medical Center emergency room where he was attended to. Court papers state he had “numerous cuts, contusions and swelling on and about his head, face and neck area with several serious cuts in the scalp and multiple cuts and abrasions on his arms, legs and feet, along with numerous cuts and abrasions covering most of his back.”

Photographs were taken of the injuries, and officers later found the man’s vehicle near 629 Ruble Ave.

According to documents, the officer who first located the vehicle observed a blood-stained white cloth or T-shirt laying on the floor on the front passenger side of the vehicle. Officers determined after talking with people who reside on the street, that the man from Kwik Trip, along with two other men, had entered and left 629 Ruble Ave. on several occasions.

An officer then made contact with a person he knew who lived at the residence, who told the officer that one of the men who had come to the residence with the earlier stated man was the father of a child born to her daughter, court documents state.

The father of the child was identified as Gordon Roy Villagomez, 20, of Columbia Heights. The second man was identified as Robinson-Schluter, according to papers.

The person interviewed by the officer said Robinson-Schulter had a 9 mm handgun, which she had seen. She said she also had observed blood on garbage bags in the basement of the house and a bullet lying on the floor of the basement.

Because of that information and the information from the man at Kwik Trip, the SWAT team assembled outside the residence to make contact with Robinson-Schluter and Villagomez, according to court documents. The woman interviewed earlier gave the police permission to enter the house.

Members of the SWAT team arrested Robinson-Schluter at 2:33 p.m.

Police searched the 18-year-old man before he was transported to the Freeborn County Adult Detention Center, and they found two 9 mm rounds in his front left pocket, papers state. Under the bed where he had been when the police entered the house, they found a 9 mm pistol.

Court documents went on to say that Robinson-Schluter had blood on his right hand and pants.

Later, after the man from Kwik Trip was released from the emergency room, an officer interviewed him.

According to court papers, the man stated that he had come to Albert Lea, bringing with him Villagomez who wanted to see his newborn child, whose mother lived at the residence on Ruble Avenue. Robinson-Schluter came with him.

When they arrived at the house on Ruble Avenue, Robinson-Schluter and Villagomez began to drink alcoholic beverages. The other man did not drink.

Documents state that the man said Robinson-Schluter began to ask him about money, to hit him and to demand his wallet.

Court documents went on to state that the man said that Robinson-Schluter was allegedly “hitting him with his pistol and his fists and that he had been kicked until (Robinson-Schluter) got his wallet, credit card, cell phone and car keys.” The man said that during the assault, Robinson-Schluter allegedly pointed a pistol — which he described as a 9 mm pistol — at his head and pressed it into his face and neck.

The man stated he was told that it was a 9 mm gun and that Robinson-Schluter had the gun in his pocket when they drove down from the Twin Cities, according to court papers.

The man said that allegedly “during the assault he had been ordered to take off his clothes, a belt had been put around his neck and tightened and he had feared for his life. The assault occurred in the downstairs of the house in the basement,” court papers state.

He was not able to leave the residence and had been threatened over a period of several hours, and was required to take the two men to get cigarettes, according to the documents.

The papers conclude that the gun the officers found was a Ruger P95 9 mm handgun. The gun had blood on the end of it and on the sides of it. The magazine was removed from it and five live rounds were found inside, the papers say.

Officers determined that the serial number had been rubbed off the gun, and blood was observed in the basement of the residence.

The documents concluded by stating that Robinson-Schluter denied that anyone assaulted the man.

Robinson-Schluter is being charged with second degree assault with a dangerous weapon, kidnapping, first-degree attempted aggravated robbery and a charge of removing or altering the serial numbers on a firearm.
