Bank robber gets almost 12 years

ANCHORAGE — A 23-year-old Fairbanks man received almost 12 years in prison for robbing a bank.

Federal officials say Nicholas J. Singleton will also be placed on five years of supervised released and must pay restitution for the robbery that occurred last December at the Key Bank.

Singleton robbed the bank at gunpoint on December 18. At one point, he shoved the gun into a customer's rib cage to induce compliance. Law enforcement officers later learned the gun was loaded with hollow-point bullets.

Singleton was sentenced Friday by U.S. District Court Judge Ralph Beistline.
