'Bro, I'm done talkin':' violent robbery has homeowner on edge

FORT WAYNE, Ind. ---Imagine what the neighbors think when a gun-wielding trio shows up yelling and kicking in the door just after 7 p.m. on an August night.

Someone called police, a good thing, for sure, and the female victim’s home surveillance captured images of the three violent people who robbed her of $600 while her young children and boyfriend watched, court documents said.

But it didn’t stop there with Ashley Cunningham, 41, Shawn Williamson, 27 and Tyler Anderson, 29.

Cunningham, who makes her appearance in court documents as the ringleader in this attack, predicts that “they” will not open the door. 

One has to ask ‘why would they?’ What are you on that would make you believe someone would open the door to two partially masked men and a woman already known for verbal threats.

The probable cause affidavit written by Fort Wayne detective Liza Anglin drily describes all that the female victim faced on Aug. 11 at her home south of Waynedale.

On camera, Anderson kicked open the door “armed with a pistol” and Williamson, a “black assault rifle.” The assault rifle was the same gun he possessed during a previous traffic stop and had “the same identifying marks” noted in the Aug. 11 video.

“Open the door. I’m going to get in either way!” Cunningham is heard yelling in the video.

One of the men is heard shouting inside the home “Where’s that gun at? Ashley, give me that gun.”

Understandably, the victim told police she’s afraid of Cunningham who has sent her text messages such as these:

“Bitch, I’ll have him wipe ur kids down, play with me bro, I’m done talking” accompanied by a photo of a firearm.

Or this one sent with a photo of the assault rifle: “yeah, there’s another one where you keep involving the police and we can get real. I would suggest you stop.”

This dialogue, straight out of a Hollywood movie, where everyone’s a “bro” or a “brah” or yes, the “B word” left the victim scared. 

No surprise the victim has filed protective orders against everyone of these fools, but will it work?

All three have been charged with Felony 2 burglary with a deadly weapon, Felony 3 armed robbery with a deadly weapon and F5 intimidation with a deadly weapon

Warrants have been issued for Cunningham and Anderson. Williamson is due in court Monday for a trial setting, online documents show.
