(AP) — A 24-year-old Lincoln man accused of having sex with a sleeping woman has been sentenced to prison.

Jeremy Tinnean was sentenced on Tuesday to four to five years in prison. Tinnean had pleaded no contest and was convicted of attempted sexual assault.

A 21-year-old woman told police that she, Tinnean and two of his friends had gone to several bars on June 20, 2012. She ended up at a downtown apartment, sleeping on the bed of the man who lived there. She reported that she awoke early the next morning and found that Tinnean was having sex with her.
