MINOT, N.D. (AP) - A Minot man has been sentenced to spend six months behind bars for embezzling nearly $100,000 from his employer, a commercial truck dealer.
Ryan Koble pleaded guilty to felony theft and was sentenced Wednesday to three years in prison with all but six months suspended.
Koble, 40, was a branch manager at Wallwork Truck Center.
The Minot Daily News reports Koble told investigators he found a loophole in inventory system and fabricated invoices and refunds from September 2018 to September 2019. An internal investigation uncovered the scheme.
Koble used the embezzled money to buy a boat, golf clubs and put a down payment on a new truck. Court records show he has paid full restitution.
