Two former Lakewood High School football players were sentenced today to juvenile facilities for their roles in a string of armed robberies in Lakewood.

Christopher Perpignan, 18, was sentenced to six years in a juvenile detention center, and Hassan Diawara, 17, to 12 years in a juvenile facility, the Star Ledger reports.

The pair were part of a group of four arrested for the multiple armed robberies committed in Lakewood within moments of each other. The incidents were first reported by TLS.

The other are expected to be sentenced next month.
