DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) - A Devils Lake man convicted of burglarizing a fast-food restaurant that authorities say was destroyed by arson has been given a suspended three-year prison sentence and put on probation.
Michael Ott was found guilty in March of burglarizing the local Hardee’s in October 2015 but found not guilty of torching the building. No one was hurt in the fire.
The Devils Lake Journal reports (https://bit.ly/2sq4TrJ ) that Ott was sentenced this week to two years of supervised probation, after spending a year and eight months behind bars. Ott also was ordered to pay $1,500 in restitution.
