(KNZA)--An Elwood man, charged in connection with a shooting in 2021, has been placed on probation.
According to court documents, Liam McCorkle was sentenced last week in Doniphan County District Court on a charge of aggravated battery. He was given a 41-month suspended prison term and then placed on 36-months supervised probation. McCorkle was credited for 202 days served in jail.
He pleaded no contest to the aggravated battery charge in April. In exchange for the plea, a charge of attempted second-degree murder was dismissed.
McCorkle was arrested October 2, 2021 after a St. Joseph, Missouri man was shot in a garage in the 600 block of Libel Street, in Elwood.
The victim, identified as Joey Ezell, was treated at a St. Joseph hospital and later released.
