JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) – A man convicted of injuring a toddler after shooting into a northeast Florida home has been sentenced to 95 years in prison.

A Duval County judge sentenced 30-year-old Joseph Patrick Chambers on Thursday. He was convicted in May of four counts of second-degree attempted murder and one count of shooting deadly missiles.

Prosecutors say he fired shots at the house because of a dispute with someone who lived there.

The Florida Times-Union (http://bit.ly/1NfMfE9) reports that one of the shots struck a 3-year-old girl in the foot while she sat in her living room.
