MANITOWOC -- A 29-year-old Manitowoc man is in the Sheboygan County Jail where he faces charges from a traffic stop. But soon, he is expected to be charged in Manitowoc County for his alleged role in the armed robbery of the A Store on the city's north side. That crime happened last Thursday evening, February 11th.
