A Chicago man initially charged with attempted robbery at the Clock & Watch Shop recently pleaded guilty to a felony burglary count as part of a deal with prosecutors, court records show.

The 62-year-old woman working at the store began screaming and Quevedo fled without any merchandise, but was stopped by onlookers who heard the commotion. Quevedo was sentenced to 90 days in DuPage County Jail, with credit for half that amount as time served, put on 24 months of probation and ordered to stay away from the store.
