Three men have been sentenced for a robbery that occurred in October 2014 at a grocery store on Monday.
Charles Gibbons, 24, Juan Young, 22, and Donnie Hall, 22, whom are all from Providence, have been sentenced on June 8th for the robbery of Shop N Go on Union Avenue that happened on October 7, 2014.
Gibbons was given 41 years with 21 years to serve and 20 years suspended with probation.
Young cooperated and was given 18 years with eight years to serve and 10 suspended with probation, non-parolable.

Officials say the three men allegedly drove to the store in October, Gibbons and Hall each with a gun, put on masks, entered the store pointing the guns at the store owner and demanded money. They took $500 and cigarettes.
The store owner followed the men fleeing before Gibbons got out and shot at his vehicle.
