MASON CITY, Iowa (AP) - A 25-year-old Clear Lake man has been given five years in prison for stealing Iowa lottery tickets.

The Mason City Globe Gazette reports (https://bit.ly/1UceAj6 ) that Tyler Meuer was sentenced on Tuesday. Court records say he’d pleaded guilty to theft, unauthorized use of a credit card and to a weapons charge. Prosecutors dropped other charges in exchange for Meuer’s pleas.

The charges stem from crimes committed on May 10 in Clear Lake.
