WICHITA, KS—A Wichita man has pleaded guilty to a bank robbery charge, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said today. Sergio Little, 29, Wichita, pleaded guilty to one count of aiding and abetting a bank robbery. In his plea, he admitted that in August 2011, he and others discussed robbing the Sunflower Bank at 2073 North Webb Road in Wichita. On August 11, 2011, he and two other men drove to the bank. Co-defendant Willie J. Jackson went inside and robbed the bank. When Jackson got back to the car, the men drove to a pre-arranged location where they switched to another vehicle. They were arrested later that day.

Little is set for sentencing June 7, 2012. He faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison and a fine up to $250,000. Co-defendants include: Willie J.
