WYOMING, Mich. — The man who opened fire inside a crowed store on New Year's Eve 2023 will spend more than a decade behind bars.
Latrell Young was sentenced Thursday to a minimum of 13 years in prison with a maximum of 22 years.
The 22-year-old was convicted in October for firing 10 shots inside the Walmart off 54th Street in Wyoming. Investigators say Young and another suspect, Camrin Carpenter, tried to steal the cell phone of another man in the store.
