PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A North Philadelphia woman will spend the next 5 to 10 years behind bars in connection to the execution-style murder of a grocer.

Eliana Vazquez was sentenced today for helping her boyfriend identify, then kill Reyna Aguirre Alonzo.

The West Kensington grocer was shot to death inside the Caribe Mini Market in January of 2012.

Police say she was killed because she witnessed a murder.

22-year-old Vazquez was the last of four people to be sentenced in the case.
