ERIE, Pa. (AP) - A man already serving time for helping a fugitive hide was sentenced Wednesday to almost two years in prison on a federal weapons conviction in the same case.
Todd Allen Nelson, 31, was sentenced for receiving, possessing and concealing 35 stolen guns that authorities said were stored in his garage after Ralph "Bucky" Phillips stole them from a gun shop last year.
Phillips escaped from a jail near Buffalo, N.Y., in April 2006. While on the run, he shot a New York state trooper during a traffic stop and two other troopers who were staking out his ex-girlfriend's home. One trooper was killed.
