MACON, Ga. (AP) - Two men have been sentenced for stealing 17 guns from Macon’s Bass Pro Shops.
According to a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s office for the Middle District of Georgia, 24-year-old Tabari Walters was sentenced to 33 months on Friday. Thirty-two-year-old Dante Thomas was sentenced to five years in prison on Tuesday. They were also ordered to pay $14,620 in restitution to the store.

The other two men, 24-year-old Jabari Walters and 35-year-old Kenneth Atwater, also pleaded guilty and are scheduled to be sentenced April 12.
