    The home invasion happened on Oct. 27, 2017, and left an elderly couple hospitalized. Prosecutors say it was part of a series of crimes committed by Evans — a man accused in a series of break-ins, who prosecutors say used a stolen car and a stolen gun to carry out some of his crimes.

    Evans got out of prison in February of 2017 after serving nearly 20 years for charges of battery to an officer, then battery to a prisoner.
