A man convicted for the shooting death of Donald Armstrong III and other crimes committed around the same time will spend 56-and-a-half years to life in prison.
Joshua Beall, 30, was sentenced in court Tuesday.
Beall and his lawyer claimed Donald Armstrong III pointed a gun at Beall while they and a woman were at an apartment on Maryland Avenue last summer. Beall told the jury he killed Armstrong in self-defense.
Prosecutors claimed Beall admitted his crimes to police, then came up with new stories before trial.
The charges against Beall included aggravated robbery stemming from a series of bank robberies and a carjacking involving a female pizza delivery driver in Huber Heights.
He was arrested after a chase and crash in Sharonville, near Cincinnati.
