Marquis Hayes Henderson, 24, was sentenced by US District Judge Theodore D. Chuang to seven years in federal prison followed by five years of supervised release, authorities announced on Monday afternoon.
Court records reveal that on April 29, 2022, Henderson and four co-conspirators met at a storage lot in Clinton before heading to the store in a stolen vehicle. Henderson brought a firearm, which he used to force a store employee inside and order them to lay down in an aisle.
While Henderson held the worker at gunpoint, another suspect used a power tool to break open the store’s ATM, police said. That suspect and another accomplice grabbed $35,020 in cash before the group fled in the stolen car.
Officials have not disclosed information about the other suspects involved.
