TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A Topeka man was sentenced to just over 11 years in prison for a shooting death in Topeka, which will be served after about 80 years he is serving for other crimes.
Stephen Alan Macomber was sentenced Thursday for involuntary manslaughter in the 2010 death of 26-year-old Ryan Lofton at the victim’s home.
Macomber was convicted in 2012 of second-degree murder but the Kansas Court of Appeals ordered a retrial.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports after Macomber shot Lofton, he shot and wounded a Marshall County deputy in Blue Rapids, then held an elderly woman hostage during a police standoff. He was sentenced to 80 years and one month for those crimes.
He also had convictions in 1985 in Sedgwick County and a 1992 Reno County case.
