BROOKSVILLE — A 25-year-old Spring Hill man was sentenced to life in prison Wednesday night for robbing a lock-and-key store in a crime rampage that included several armed robberies in Hernando County and surrounding areas.
Timothy Gartner, who spent two years in state prison for previous convictions, was arrested in December 2007. Authorities initially took a different man into custody but began focusing on Gartner after he tried to use a stolen credit card at Lollipops, an adult entertainment spot in Hudson.
Prosecutors said Gartner was lingering in Spring Hill Lock & Key on Dec. 19, 2007, when he pointed a BB gun at Jean Stanonis and demanded money.
