The two Philadelphia men were sentenced to 240 months in prison for their roles in a robbery conspiracy that targeted local jewelry stores.

Two Philadelphia men have been sentenced in connection with numerous jewelry store robberies throughout the Main Line and Montgomery County, the U.S. Attorney's Office said.

Darrell Williams, 45, and David Story, 47, were each sentenced to 240 months in prison for their roles in a robbery conspiracy that targeted jewelry stores. Both pleaded guilty last year.

Story admitted to three robberies at the Tourneau store in King of Prussia, two of which Williams accompanied him. Authorities say the pair also committed robberies at Govberg Jewelers in Ardmore and Bernie Robbins in St. Davids. The pair also admitted to the 2010 robbery of a jewelry story in Delaware.
