A Butte County man who caused a four-hour stand off in May will spend 12 years in prison for his crimes. 22-year old Angelo Atencio Jr. was sentenced Wednesday.

He was found guilty by a jury in August for stealing guns from his girlfriend's parents. Deputies tracked Atencio down in Thermolito, where he barricaded himself in a house for four hours, until he came out peacefully.

His sentence was doubled since this was his second strike, according to California's three-strike law.
