A Washington man has been sentenced to 35 years in prison for the shooting death of a Hyattsville man last year, prosecutors say.
Aaron Roberts, 31, was sentenced Wednesday in the slaying of 33-year-old Gregory Barron Jr. Roberts had pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in August.
Officials say on Aug. 28, 2008, Roberts went to a nightclub in Hyattsville and refused to be patted down by Barron, who was working as a bouncer at the club.
When Barron took a cigarette break a short time later, Roberts shot him several times and then fled.
