WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — A man from Luzerne County has been sent to prison after a shooting in Wilkes-Barre last year.
Jonathan McGilvery, 40, of Edwardsville, was sentenced Thursday to one and a half to seven years in prison. He pleaded guilty in April to aggravated assault, terroristic threats, and a firearms charge.
Police say that in April of 2023, McGilvery shot another man on West Northampton Street. The victim was later found lying on the side of the road along South River Street and taken to a hospital.
McGilvery was arrested a few months later.
