(KNZA)--A Mayetta teenager convicted on three felony charges in connection with the shooting of a 17-year-old Mayetta girl in October has been sentenced to five years in prison.
Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller told MSC News that 18-year-old Lance Bailey was sentenced Thursday to consecutive terms of three years on a charge of aggravated battery and one year on each of two counts of aggravated assault.
Miller says the sentence is to be followed by three years on post-release supervision. In addition, Bailey will also be required to register as a violent offender for 15 years.
He pleaded no contest to the charges in November contained in an amended complaint.
Bailey had originally been charged with attempted first-degree murder.
Authorities say the shooting happened at a residence on the Prairie Band Potawatomi Reservation October 3rd during what’s believed to have been a verbal alteration.
The victim was transported to a Topeka hospital for treatment.
