A Peru man was sentenced Friday to four years in prison for firing a 2019 shot that missed a car but hit a building — and for twice violating his felony probation.
Kevin T. Jones, 22, of 1818 Fourth St., managed to secure the minimum sentence for aggravated discharge of a firearm (range: 4-15 years) but is subject to the state Truth In Sentencing Act requiring certain felons to serve at least 85% of their prison terms. With more than a year in time served, he could be paroled in summer 2023.
