GAYLORD -- A woman is awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to robbing a Gaylord business.

Candy Willobee pleaded guilty to two of the four counts against her including unarmed robbery and larceny in a building.

With the plea deal the two other charges against her, armed robbery and assault with a weapon,  may be dropped at sentencing.   The plea deal will allow Willobee to avoid possible life behind bars.

The crime took place at the Advance America Cash Advance in Gaylord on April 28.  Willobee was arrested after a three month search in Louisville, KY.  She was brought back to Gaylord by Federal Marshalls.

Willobee will be sentenced on November 4.
