Scott Bee

A criminal complaint details a series of Walgreens pharmacy robberies that took place on June 21, twice on June 23, June 29, and July 10, in Milwaukee and Wauwatosa. Police determined the same two suspects - later identified as Huff and Logan - worked together to commit these crimes prior to the armored car robbery. 

The complaint says on July 13, police were dispatched near North Shore Bank on Capitol Drive for an armed robbery and shooting. That's where officers found Thillens Cagistics armored car employee, Scott Bee, hurt.

It says Bee was driving the truck, stopped at North Shore Bank to fill up the ATMs with money, and three gunshots were heard. 

He suffered four gunshot wounds -- two to the chest, two to the right side. 

Bee told police an African American man said, "Give me the money." He was hospitalized and died of his injuries on July 25. 

Both Logan and Huff were tracked down by phone data and surveillance video. 

If convicted of all charges, they each face a total of more than 200 years in prison.

The intentional homicide count carries a life sentence.
