A Prattville computer store operator was convicted Wednesday of selling stolen computers out of his store, prosecutors said.

Ibrahim M. Jallad was convicted of six counts of conspiracy to commit burglary and four counts of conspiracy to commit theft, said Montgomery prosecutor Scott Green, who worked the case with fellow prosecutor John Kachelman.

Jallad was convicted of teaming up with codefendant Christopher Bryan Cleare, who is charged with stealing more than a hundred computers from at least 13 businesses last fall and bringing the merchandise to Jallad for sale at his Prattville computer store, PC and Moore.

Cleare has pleaded guilty, Green said. Jallad faces up to a year and a day to 10 years on each count. No sentencing date has been set
