WAUKEGAN, Ill. (AP) — A Waukegan man wants to withdraw the guilty plea entered in connection with the stabbing death of a Round Lake man and the injuring of a teenager.

A Lake County judge on Wednesday scheduled an Aug. 26 hearing on a request made by the attorney for Zervont Thomas. The 21-year-old Thomas in June pleaded guilty but mentally ill to first-degree murder in the death of 33-year-old Stefan Metel. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison.
