SYRACUSE - A former firefighter who got drunk and accidentally shot a fellow firefighter at a fire station near Syracuse is getting five years' probation.

Stanley Memmelaar's sentence from state Supreme Court Justice John Brunetti is part of a plea deal in which the 27-year-old former Moyers Corners volunteer firefighter admitted to first-degree reckless endangerment.

Memmelaar offered an apology in court to victim Tyler Drake and the fire department.
