A man has been sentenced to over seven years in prison for an armed robbery that occurred in 2024, according to the Oregon City Police Department.
Thomas James Groat of Oregon City was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison last month after being convicted of first-degree robbery, unauthorized use of a weapon, and intimidation.
The conviction is for an armed robbery committed in March 2024 at the Circle K gas station in Oregon City.
According to police, Groat demanded money from a gas station clerk while holding a knife to his neck. Groat left before authorities arrived, but security video led to his arrest three days later.
Groat will be on post-prison supervision for three years after completing his term.
