The second of 5 women has been sentenced after prosecutors say she stole thousands of dollars of merchandise from an Ulta store during a ‘flash mob’ robbery in Livingston County.
30-year-old Shanel Webster, of Detroit, was sentenced Thursday to 25-60 years in prison after pleading guilty to 15 charges including armed robbery, assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder, and conducting a criminal enterprise.

After the suspects fled the store, one of the women, Shanel Webster drove her get-away car right towards police, prosecutors say. Police then fired shots but no one was hurt.
