Accomplice Charged in Kennewick Home Invasion, Store Robbery

A 38-year-old Kennewick woman has been formally charged as an accomplice in a pair of incidents last November, previously thought to be unrelated.

Last November 8th, 36-year-old Travis Sregzinski was accused of robbing the Headie's Tobacco Store on Clearwater Ave, taking over $800 from the register after forcing the clerk to tie themselves up with zip ties he brought to the crime scene.

Police later traced Sregzinski to Yakima, where he was the suspect in a pair of home invasions. They ended with the suspect fatally shooting himself inside one of the homes.

Thursday, Kennewick police announced Aimee Leesman is now facing accomplice charges in not only the Headie's robbery, but the two have been named as the perpetrators in a Kennewick home invasion that occurred earlier the same day as the store robbery. Leesman reportedly was the lookout for the Headie's robbery.

Leesman and Sregzinski robbed a woman of her car keys, cellphone, and other items in the early morning hours at the victim's home on West 42nd. Place. Previously, police did not believe the two incidents were related.

Officials say Leesman was in a relationship with Sregzinski, and evidence found at her home linked her to both incidents, as well as the incidents in Yakima.  Additional charges will be added to her arrest record, she was already incarcerated for the Headies robbery.
