CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - A New Hampshire federal judge has sent a California man to prison for 14 years for the armed robberies of two jewelry stores in 2011.

Fifty-year-old Delano Nelson of Compton, Calif. was sentenced after pleading guilty Wednesday to robbing Hannoush Jewelers in Manchester and Kay Jewelers in Tilton in the fall of 2011.

His accomplices - Shyloe Johnson of Sanbornton and Walter Williams of Compton, Calif. - previously pleaded guilty and also have been sentenced.



The three men wore Halloween masks from the movie “Scream” and threatened customers at Kay Jewelers with a gun before making off with more than $200,000 in merchandise.
