FAYETTEVILLE -- A Rogers man was sentenced Thursday to 22 years in prison for robbing a couple at gunpoint last year.

A jury Wednesday evening found Lentonio Marcell Jenner, 26, guilty of aggravated residential burglary, two counts of kidnapping, aggravated robbery, battery and two counts of terroristic threatening.

Fayetteville police say Jenner walked up to Jerry and Glenda Moore's house on River Meadows Drive, off Huntsville Road, on Oct. 13, 2017. He displayed a gun, threatened the couple, and forced them into their vehicle to drive him to their bank for money, according to a police report.

Jerry Moore had a gun in his Ford Explorer and shot Jenner in the leg. Jenner and Moore fought until Jenner was pushed out of the vehicle near Huntsville Road and River Meadows Drive, police said.

Jenner was bleeding and laying in the road near the bridge over the West Fork of the White River when police found him.

Jenner faces an unrelated bank robbery charge.

Police say Jenner and another man walked into the Arvest Bank at 1113 Garland Ave. on Jan. 3, 2017, brandished guns, demanded money and fled with $13,615. Police have said the pair are among four people who robbed the bank.
