A local man was sentenced to state prison for a burglary spree that went throughout Lower Bucks County.
Christopher Robbins, 25, of Bristol Township’s Croydon section, was sentenced to four to eight years in state prison last week. Judge Wallace Bateman also ordered Robbins to 10 years of consecutive probation and to repay $108,540.17 to his victims or their insurance carriers.

The sentence comes after Robbins pleaded guilty to charges, including burglary, theft and receiving stolen property.
According to authorities, Robbins broke into homes in Middletown, Lower Makefield and Northampton Townships in October and November of 2014. He made off with jewelry, coins, cash, computer and camera equipment and, in one instance, a 2005 Subaru Impreza, the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office said.
In many of the cases, Robbins flipped the stolen goods and sold them at pawn shops.

Robbins, according to prosecutors, blamed his crime spree on drug addiction.
