A man from Connecticut, U.S. accused of attempting to rob a woman at knifepoint in an elevator at the Mohegan Sun casino says he was sleepwalking at the time, AP reported。
Winston Riley was arrested on March 18 after the woman told police he had flashed a large knife and tried to grab her purse while the two were alone in a parking garage elevator。
Riley said he was awakened by the woman when she ran away in confusion and fright, attorney Nicholas D'Amato said。
D'Amato said that he plans to use a medical defense for Riley based on that claim. He said he's confirmed with Riley's family that the 27-year-old has had a problem with sleepwalking since he was a child。
据美联社报道，美国康涅狄格州的一名男子被指控在金神大****************场里持刀抢劫一名女子未遂，不过该男子辩称，当时的他正在梦游。
温斯顿•赖利于3月18日被捕。女子向警察报案称，他们两人单独乘坐停车场电梯时，他亮出了刀子，试图夺走她的钱包。
律师尼古拉斯•达莫托说，据赖利回忆，当这名女子惊慌逃走时，他才被女子惊醒。
达莫托表示，他计划以这个说法为基础对赖利进行医疗辩护。
他说，他已跟赖利的家人证实，这名27岁的男子从小就有梦游的毛病。
