Iowa City police charged two men with robbery from two separate incidents over the weekend.

Courtney White, 21 1960 Broadway B9, was charged with first-degree robbery and assault while participating in a felony.

According to police reports, White assaulted a neighbor who lived in his building and stole jewelry and cash from him. The victim suffered a broken leg from the assault and was taken to the hospital.

First-degree robbery and assault while participating in a felony are both Class B felonies, punishable by up to 25 years in prison.

Leo Neuzil, 43, 430 N. Van Buren, was charged with first-degree burglary and second-degree robbery after he was charged with possession of marijuana.

According to reports, police arrested Neuzil on Oct. 16 on Linn Street for possession. Police had a warrant for Neuzil’s arrest and allegedly found a bag containing marijuana when they searched him.

In July, Neuzil allegedly broke into a woman’s home with a sledgehammer. He reportedly punched the owner in the face, knocked her to the ground, and kicked her in the stomach. He took her purse and cell phone so she wouldn’t call police. He then went into the residence, pushed a minor up against the wall, and stole several items from a back room.

First-degree burglary is a Class B felony and is generally punishable by up to 25 years in prison. Second-degree burglary is a Class C felony and is generally punishable by 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
