WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – A 26-year-old Wichita man was sentenced Thursday to 71 months in federal prison for a robbery in which more than 75 cell phones were stolen from a Sprint store.
Xavier Lopez pleaded guilty to one count of robbery. In his plea, he admitted he served as a lookout while co-defendant Camarin McPherson, 26, Wichita, robbed a Sprint store at 530 S. West St. in Wichita.
McPherson brandished a firearm and hog-tied a clerk with zip ties before taking 54 Apple iPhones and 24 Samsung Galaxy phones with a total estimated value of more than $60,000.
The robbers were arrested after a chase ended in a wreck at Kellogg and Meridian.
