SALEM -- The man who opened fire on three men in a Salem park in 2009 was sentenced Monday to life in prison.
Twenty-one-year-old Lorenzo Garcia-Ceja won't be eligible for parole until he's 60.
The Statesman Journal reports he pleaded guilty to murder in the death of 21-year-old Montez Bailey of Salem and pleaded no contest to attempted murder for wounding two of Bailey's friends in Northgate Park.
Garcia-Ceja fled to Mexico after the shooting and was arrested in 2010. He fought extradition but was returned to Salem last March for prosecution.
