PEORIA Ill. – Two Peoria men have been sentenced to multiple years in federal prison for robbery and firearm offenses.
According to the United States Attorney’s Office Central District of Illinois, 29-year-old Isaiah Holland and 23-year-old Tyrone Anthony Curtis were sentenced to multiple years of imprisonment.
The two men were arrested last year for robbing an individual at gunpoint.
U.S. District Judge Jonathan E. Hawley sentenced Holland to 12 months’ imprisonment for the robbery and 84 months’ imprisonment for the firearms offense – followed by three years of supervised release.
The judge sentenced Curtis to 33 months’ imprisonment, to be followed by three years of supervised release.

The case against Holland and Curtis is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.
