A 25-year-old Fort Thompson man has been sentenced to nearly 30 years in prison for robbing a Sioux Falls casino last fall.

Ryan John Scott was sentenced Wednesday for first-degree robbery, possession of a firearm with an altered serial number and grand-theft possession of a stolen firearm. The robbery led to an extensive search of the central Sioux Falls neighborhood.

Prosecutors say Scott robbed a clerk at Ken’s Corner Pub and Casino in September with a stolen handgun. The serial number on the gun was scratched off.
