A Calverton man pleaded guilty to attempted murder and other charges for opening fire on a crowd at a candlelight vigil.

Reid fled the state and was eventually arrested in North Carolina.

He also assaulted a corrections officer inside the Suffolk County Jail in December.

Reid is expected to be sentenced in May to 14 years in prison.
