Man gets 60 years in Fort Wayne ambulance shooting

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — A judge has sentenced a Fort Wayne man to 60 years in prison on four counts of attempted murder and other charges for shooting at an ambulance and another vehicle.

The Journal Gazette and WPTA-TV report 24-year-old Traneilous Jackson was sentenced Wednesday under terms of a plea agreement.

Jackson says he intended to kill a man in the ambulance who had just been stabbed at a nightclub and his family and friends following in the trailing vehicle. Court documents say each vehicle was hit by 16 to 20 bullets last Sept. 9.

A jury this month convicted a second gunman, 23-year-old Dontay Martin of Fort Wayne, of two counts of criminal recklessness and one count each of battery and gun and gang charges. He has not yet been sentenced.
