Cyrus Lilton Brooks, 54, broke into the building on June 24 and stole items salvaged from the devastated store following the storm. Brooks was convicted in a jury trial last week of burglary and possession of burglary tools which included a saw and sledgehammer. Judge Tommy Wilson sentenced Brooks to 10 years in prison with an additional five years on probation.
