A U.S. Marine corporal will spend eight years in prison for his role in two robberies that netted $10.

Richmond Circuit Judge Richard D. Taylor Jr. yesterday sentenced Steven Lee Reyes of California to an active sentence of eight years for two counts each of robbery and use of a firearm in a robbery.

Reyes and fellow Marine Cpl. Kraig Andrew Kiepprien of New York came to Richmond from Norfolk on Jan. 18 for a night on the town, authorities said.

About 5 the next morning, they got into Reyes' car and robbed two men in South Richmond, making off with $10 and a wallet with an ID card, authorities said.

Reyes robbed a man who was warming up his car outside his home in the 1100 block of East 16th Street, authorities said. After that, Kiepprien pulled a gun and took another man's wallet.

The Marines were found asleep in the car at a rest stop in New Kent County at 7 a.m. with the wallet and a gun in their possession, authorities said.

Kiepprien was ordered to serve six years for one count each of robbery and use of a firearm in a robbery.
