A man has been found has been sentenced to six months in jail for stealing a piece of the car that Paul Walker died in.

Anthony Janow, 26, admitted to stealing part of the body work, the roof panel, from the Porsche Carrera GT, which the actor and his friend Roger Rodas died in.

The six-month jail sentence was given in addition to three years of formal probation by Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Lloyd Nash, after Janow pleaded no contest to felony grand theft and misdemeanor counts of destroying evidence, in addition to obstructing a police officer.

Jameson Brooks Witty, his 19-year-old co-defendant, was also sentenced to six months in county jail and three years formal probation on August 14 for his part in the incident.

Shortly after the theft occurred, Witty took to Twitter to post a picture of the red roof panel taken from the car wreckage.

He boasted: "Piece of Paul Walker's car, took it off a tow truck at a stop light."

Paul Walker and his friend died on November 30 last year and fans held a memorial in his honour to mark the first year since his death.

Paul and Roger Rodas both died after the latter lost control of the Porsche Carrera GT in Santa Clarita, California, causing him to hit a pole and a tree and for the car to burst into flames.
