A Reno man has been sentenced to 222 months in federal prison for selling methamphetamine in a motel parking lot and possession of a semiautomatic handgun. 49-year-old Ronald Robinson was sentenced by District Judge Larry R. Hicks to 162 months for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and 60 months for possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime. He pleaded guilty to the criminal charges in September 2017.  Detectives with the Street Enforcement Team were conducting surveillance at the Reno Royal Motel because of numerous complaints of drug activity. Detectives saw Robinson carrying a fanny pack-type bag and meeting several people in the motel parking lot. Detectives saw Robinson drive away, and he was stopped after committing a traffic violation. During the traffic stop, detectives saw Robinson reach for a .40 caliber pistol that was holstered, a K9 officer “alerted” on the drugs.
