SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — A Denver man has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison on a federal drug charge.

Thirty-two-year-old Vincent Rios pleaded guilty in December to conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance. Authorities say Rios conspired with others to distribute at least 50 grams of methamphetamine.

U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Viken sentenced Rios to 87 months in prison, to be followed by four years of supervised release.

A federal public defender was not immediately available for comment.
