Murder and robbery charges have been dismissed for a Dubuque woman arrested on those charges less than a month ago. 18 year old Laniga Hannon  was arrested May 9th and charged in Iowa District Court of Dubuque County with first-degree murder and first-degree robbery in connection to the shooting death of 31 year old Lonnie Burns of Dubuque. Dubuque County Attorney Scott Nelson said the case is dismissed without prejudice, meaning that it can be refiled at any time. “It doesn’t mean it is dismissed permanently and that it’s case closed and there is a good reason for the dismissal. Five other people are still charged in the February 7th shooting death of Burns.Â
