NEW: Former Enid bank employee gets prison time




OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A former Enid bank employee has been sentenced to more than a year in federal prison for embezzlement.

Federal prosecutors in Oklahoma City say 48-year-old Linda Remington of Enid was sentenced Tuesday to 15 months in prison. She pleaded guilty in December to embezzling more than $120,000 from the Central National Bank of Enid where she worked.

U.S. District Judge David Russell also ordered Remington to pay more than $118,000 in restitution.
