APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A man accused of shooting and killing another man at the Fox River Mall in Grand Chute has been convicted.
Dezman Ellis, 18, pleaded no contest Wednesday to second-degree intentional homicide and first-degree recklessly endangering safety. Sentencing is scheduled for Feb. 1.
While visiting the mall on Jan. 31, Ellis, who was 17 at the time, killed Javannie Frausto during a dispute about a girlfriend. A bystander was also hurt in the shooting.
Several law enforcement agencies responded and led guests to safety. The Appleton Police Department honored its officers who responded, and the Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office recognized an off-duty deputy who assisted while visiting the mall.
