A Roosevelt man was sentenced Wednesday to 20 years in prison for attempted murder.
It follows a shooting at a house party in Uniondale more than two years ago.
Prosecutors say Ahkhazyah Wright shot and injured two people, who caught him attacking a woman at a house party in Uniondale.
He was found guilty on three counts of attempted murder back in June. He also was convicted on two counts of assault in the first degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.
