LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - A 39-year-old man has been imprisoned for selling methamphetamine in Lincoln.


The Lincoln Journal Star reports that Angelo Ybarra was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in a federal prison. He'd been convicted of possession for sale and conspiracy to sell the drug.


Authorities say Ybarra was arrested after Lincoln police received information that he distributed at least 3 pounds of meth in the city between July 2017 and March 2019.


Police say they found meth, a handgun and more than $15,000 when they searched Ybarra's residence.
