One of two men arrested following an armed robbery of the Denny's restaurant on Central Street East has been sentenced to four years in jail.
Joseph Donald West was issued the term by provincial court judge Michael Gray on Wednesday.
Terrance Abraham Johnson was also arrested following the early-morning incident on Nov. 19 and is next scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 11 to fix a date for trial.
Police reported at the time that two masked men entered the restaurant at about 3 a.m. brandishing a machete and a large kitchen knife and stole an undisclosed amount of cash from the till and from a waitress before fleeing in a stolen pickup truck.
West, who had credit for 26 days time served prior to sentencing, was given the sentence for one count of robbery.
