A Rochester man was sentenced to a decade in prison after he was found with guns and drugs two years ago.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Jaomi Delgado was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Charles Siragusa to 120 months in prison after being convicted of possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime.

The 31-year-old had been under investigation for months when he entered a restaurant on Norton Street in Rochester on May 18, 2022.
