(KNZA)--An Atchison man has been sentenced to more than 2 1/2 years in prison on charges in connection with a Hiawatha residential burglary.
22-year-old Timothy Cooke was sentenced Monday in Brown County District Court to 32-months in prison on charges of burglary and criminal possession of a firearm.
Cooke was also ordered to pay a total of $4,400 restitution.
He pleaded "no contest" to the charges earlier this month as part of a plea deal, cancelling a September jury trial that had been set in the case. In exchange for the plea, charges of felony theft and misdemeanor criminal damage to property were dismissed.
Co-defendant, 18-year-old Hiawatha resident Josh Sangrait, was sentenced to 24-months supervised probation last month on a charge of burglary for his role in the case.
The pair were charged in connection with a February 26th burglary of a home in the 200 block of Cherokee Street in Hiawatha. Stolen were two rifles and two handguns.
Cooke and Sangrait were arrested in March following an investigation by the Hiawatha Police Department.
