Mount Clemens— A 23-year-old Clinton Township man was ordered Monday to spend five to 15 years in prison for beating a blind man with his own cane and robbing
him. David Anderson pleaded no contest in December to charges of unarmed robbery and aggravated assault in connection with the Aug. 3 altercation near
the Gibraltar Trade Center on North River Road in Mount Clemens.

Macomb County Circuit Judge Peter Maceroni ruled Anderson will serve a term of up to 15 years on the unarmed robbery offense. He got time served for a second
charge of aggravated assault and on a separate probation violation. Records say he must also pay restitution of $640.
