The 15-year-old pleaded guilty on Monday to attempted robbery. A 17-year-old suspect pleaded guilty last week in connection with Robinson's shooting, the Washington Post reported.

The teens attempted to steal Robinson's wallet and his Dodge Charger Hellcat outside a business in the 1000 block of H Street NE in August. Investigators said Robinson tried to wrestle a gun away from the 17-year-old when the 15-year-old shot him in the knee and the hip.

"I was trying to rob a man for a Hellcat and it went wrong," the 15-year-old told authorities, according to the Washington Post report. "I wasn't thinking."

The 15-year-old is scheduled to be sentenced on March 8. A judge told reporters on Monday that he could have the teen remain in custody of the Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services until his 21st birthday.
