Man arrested for stealing UPS packages receives more time before sentencing

The man arrested after pointing a handgun at several UPS employees and stealing several packages was supposed to be sentenced in court today.. but that didn’t happen.

Twenty-three-year-old Adrian Guzman was taken into custody after an armed robbery at a UPS facility back in May.

The judge said that his suggested sentence would be 7.5 years in prison.

His attorney requested more time to try and lower Guzman’s sentence.

That hearing will be next month.
