3/6/14 - One of the two men charged with carjacking a man during a drug deal in Milford has been sentenced. 33-year-old Neal Pollman of Novi (pictured) was charged with armed robbery in the incident, but pleaded guilty to unarmed robbery instead. He was sentenced today to a year in the Oakland County Jail, with credit for 275 days already served. Pollmanâs co-defendant, 23-year-old Nathaniel Ashbrook of Hartland Township, remains jailed awaiting a March 31st trial. Heâs charged with armed robbery as well felony firearms and unlawful driving away of a vehicle. Milford Police say a man entered their station in the early morning hours of June 4th, 2013 and said heâd been carjacked by two men at gunpoint. Further investigation led to the discovery of the stolen car, which they said had been intentionally crashed. Pollman was located in the vicinity and arrested, while Ashbrook was arrested later after further interviews. Police say the alleged victim met Pollman and Ashbrook at a designated location to sell them LSD, but instead of paying him; they stole the car at gunpoint. At todayâs sentencing, Pollman was also ordered to undergo drug and alcohol testing upon his release and work toward receiving a high school diploma or GED. (JK)
