A Luzerne County man returned to prison Monday after being sentenced in Schuylkill County Court following revocation of his probation.
Francisco Alvarez, 19, of West Hazleton, must serve 45 days to 12 months behind bars under the terms of Judge John E. Domalakes' sentence.
Domalakes ruled prosecutors had proven that Alvarez violated his probation by failing to report to his supervising officer and moving without permission.
Alvarez originally pleaded guilty on Jan. 18, 2012, to theft and receiving stolen property. At that time, Domalakes accepted Alvarez's plea, placed him on probation for 12 months and also sentenced him to pay costs and $50 to the Criminal Justice Enhancement Account.
Shenandoah police charged Alvarez with committing the theft on May 13, 2011, in the borough.
