Richard Ross will spend a little more than four additional years in jail after pleading guilty to his role in a New Year's Eve armed robbery on the Ebb & Flow First Nation.

The 30-year-old from Silver Ridge pleaded guilty in Dauphin court last Thursday to charges of robbery, aggravated assault, and possession of a prohibited firearm without a licence.

He was sentenced to five years in jail, but had that reduced to 1,543 days once time already served was taken into account.

He was also given a 20-year weapon prohibition, a DNA order, and he must forfeit all of the seized items.

Other charges originally laid against him were stayed by the crown.
