SAN DIEGO—A man who stole nearly $600,000 worth of computer equipment from four U.S. Navy ships while working as a civilian contract employee at General Dynamics-NASSCO in San Diego was sentenced July 10 to 18 months in federal prison.

Ernesto Saldivar, 30, pleaded guilty earlier this year to theft of government property for taking hard drives, laptops, and other items from ships undergoing maintenance, then selling some of the items online.
