Alex Trenton Beltz, 26, pleaded guilty to third-degree felony assault as part of a plea agreement, according to court records. Charges of robbery and theft were dismissed.
Beltz also was sentenced to two years of probation, during which he is under court orders not to drink alcohol or enter either Fairbanks Safeway.
When Beltz was arrested in December it was reported in court documents he was pushing a cart with $235 worth of meat out of the store when a clerk stopped him in the foyer.
In an ensuing fight it was reported that Beltz sprayed Clorox bleach in the clerk’s face, the clerk grabbed Beltz and both men went to the ground.
Beltz got up and escaped with some of the meat into a waiting car, but the clerk got the license plate number and police were able to find him at a home on Charles Street.
Beltz registered a breath-alcohol content of 0.342 on a portable breath test, according to the police report, more than four times the legal limit of 0.08.
