A Port Huron man will go to jail for a robbery outside a local Walmart store St Clair County Circuit Court Judge Cynthia Lane sentenced Eric Chippewa to a year after his charge of armed robbery was reduced to unarmed robbery as part of a plea deal. Police had previously said that Chippewa approached a truck driver in the parking lot in Fort Gratiot and asked for $20 from the truck’s driver. When the driver refused, Chippewa said he had a gun and demanded the money. Chippewa apparently never did actually have a gun.
