A man who was found guilty of fatally stabbing another man in Manchester in June 2021 has been sentenced to 35 years in prison, according to the Office of the State's Attorney.

Officials said 58-year-old Garry Ramsey, of Hartford, was found guilty on Feb/ 7 of murder in connection to the death of 68-year-old Robert Callahan, of Manchester.

Officers were called to a home on Carver Lane shortly before noon on June 5, 2021 after getting a report of a stabbing. The suspect was reported to have fled the scene. He turned himself into police shortly after the murder.

Police said when they arrived to the scene, they found Callahan with a stab wound to his chest. He was transported to Hartford Hospital by emergency crews and later died of his injuries.

Ramsey forced entry into Callahan's home after going to Manchester in search of an acquaintance, officials said.

Ramsey was sentenced Tuesday to 35 years in prison.
