Nicholas 'Mitch' James Karol-Chik pleaded guilty to three new charges, including second-degree murder, in an agreement reached with the prosecution.

The second of the three suspects arrested and accused in last year's rock-throwing death of Alexa Bartell appeared in Jefferson County Court on Wednesday. Nicholas 'Mitch' James Karol-Chik pleaded guilty to three new charges, including second-degree murder, in an agreement reached with the prosecution. Karol-Chik, 19, pleaded guilty to his role in a series of rock-throwing attacks between Feb. 25, 2023 and April 19, 2023.

Several others were injured in similar incidents with what authorities described as 'large landscaping rocks,' concrete, and in one case, a statue. Joseph Koenig, Karol-Chik and Kwak were arrested and charged in connection with the rock-throwing attacks that killed Alexa Bartell and injured several others early last year. Investigators believe there were a total of 10 vehicles involved in at least three different incidents regarding the suspects.
