(Charleston, IL) — The 15-year-old who brought a gun to Mattoon High School last year, and shot a classmate will spend at least the next six years behind bars. A judge yesterday sentenced Josiah Lyons to juvenile custody until he’s 21. The judge said that if Lyons gets in trouble while in custody, he’ll then have to serve a 25 year sentence in adult prison. Police say Lyons brought a gun to the school last fall and shot a classmate.
