California's Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the felony conviction of Sirron Croskey for multiple armed robberies and other charges. Croskey pled guilty to a series of crimes that included armed robbery, reckless evading, and possession of a loaded firearm in public spaces across Contra Costa, Alameda, Santa Clara, and Napa counties.
Croskey's crime spree ended after a final robbery in Napa County led to a high-speed chase with deputies from the Contra Costa Sheriff's Office. The chase concluded with Croskey abandoning the vehicle and the firearm used in the robberies before attempting to flee on foot quickly.
"Californians deserve to live their lives free from the shadow of violence," Bonta said. "I am immensely proud of my team for their unwavering commitment to justice and for ensuring that those who violate the law are held responsible. When we work together, we get results that create a safer and more secure California for everyone."
The criminal complaint discloses Croskey's sentencing, which took place on Wednesday in Contra Costa Superior Court. He received a sentence of 9 years and 8 months in State Prison and was also ordered to pay restitution to the victims of his crimes.
Multiple law enforcement agencies were involved in bringing Croskey to justice, including the Contra Costa Sheriff’s Office, the American Canyon Police Department, the Livermore Police Department, the San Jose Police Department, and the DOJ’s Bureau of Gambling Control. The DOJ’s Special Prosecution Section, which handles complex criminal cases in California, prosecuted the case.
