{Charleston, West Virginia}...Brent Edward Prouse of St. Albans rejected a plea agreement Wednesday in Kanawha Circuit Court after being accused of swiping keys from 80 year old Mildred Carper and driving off in her car, which was parked in the CAMC General Hospital parking garage. Assistant Kanawha County prosecutor Maryclaire Akers says the plea deal offered to lump a slew of unrelated grand larceny, breaking and entering, and burglary charges into one second-degree robbery charge. Kanawha Circuit Judge Charles King rejected a motion to reduce Prouse's $100,000 bond. Prouse has not been indicted on the grand larceny charges.
