EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon woman who robbed a Eugene coffee stand to support a heroin addiction has been sentenced to more than six years in prison.

The Register-Guard reports that 20-year-old Caitlin Marie Eisen pleaded guilty and was sentenced Wednesday in Lane County Circuit Court.

Eisen drove up to a Dutch Bros. coffee stand on Nov. 14 and threatened to use a weapon while demanding cash from two employees. She left after the workers handed her a cash register drawer filled with money.

Prosecutors said Eisen immediately went and purchased heroin with the money she stole.

Police said Eisen had no criminal history and had been working as a dancer at an adult club in Springfield.
