LAS VEGAS (AP) — A judge has sentenced a Las Vegas man up to five years of probation after the man punched a former U.S. Marine on a public bus last year, causing him to lose his right eye.
District Judge Kathleen Delaney sentenced Nathaniel Graves Jr. on Nov. 30 for the attack on 64-year-old Roger Conant.
Graves pleaded guilty in July to battery resulting in substantial bodily harm on a victim 60 years or older. Authorities say the encounter occurred on a Regional Transportation Commission bus in December 2019 and was captured on surveillance video.
Graves was arrested in January and spent eight months in custody while awaiting his sentencing.
