A Panora man was recently sentenced for a May incident.

According to court documents, Kerry Hayes was sentenced in Guthrie County District Court Monday after breaking gates around the county this past May. Judge Brad McCall sentenced Hayes to a total of four years probation and $1,600 in fines. Hayes is also required to write an apology letter to each of the affected gate owners.

The 38-year-old was taken into custody on June 12th and charged with two counts of second degree criminal mischief, class D felonies. Online court records show the charges were later amended to 3rd degree criminal mischief. The estimated damage of the broken gates was $5,650.
