PIERRE, S.D. (AP) - A Little Eagle woman who admitted to stealing postal money orders will spend eight months in federal custody.

U.S. Attorney Randolph Seiler says 35-year-old Lucenda Bear stole two money orders from the post office in Little Eagle in May or June of last year. She then used them for small purchases at a pawn shop and kept the change.

Bear pleaded guilty in January and was recently sentenced. She also was ordered to pay $275 in restitution.
