A St. Paul man who pleaded guilty in May to felony theft was sentenced to more than two years in prison Thursday in Freeborn County District Court.

Coselle Lonnell Mays, 37, was sentenced to 21 months in prison and given credit for 88 days served in connection with the March 27 theft of $1,400 in pull tab money from The Nasty Habit. Mays was also sentenced to 29 months in prison Thursday in Freeborn County District Court in a separate file after pleading guilty in July to felony domestic assault.

Mays was given credit for 38 days served on the domestic assault file.

Court documents state the victim in the July 11 domestic assault suffered a perforated eardrum.

The sentences will run concurrently.

Mays will serve his sentence at the Minnesota correctional facility in St. Cloud.

Court documents state Mays was charged with felony theft after a bartender reported that a man had come behind the bar and taken two green bank bags inside the register. One contained money from selling pull tabs and the other contained pull tab payout receipts.

A police sergeant reviewed video surveillance that showed a suspect later identified as Mays walk behind the bar, take something behind the register and leave the bar.
