AUBURN - A 21-year-old Syracuse man who stabbed three Fleming residents with a kitchen knife was sentenced in Cayuga County Court Tuesday to 12 years in prison.

Cayuga County Chief Assistant District Attorney said Randy Wilson, of 915 James St., who pleaded guilty to three counts of assault on April 3, stabbed a male resident after he was told to leave a Justin Drive home in Fleming for talking about gangs. Wilson then stabbed two other female victims when they attempted to pull him off the first victim.

Valdina said the male victim could have bled to death from a stab wound to his liver and a second wound that just missed his left lung and heart.
