A then-15-year-old has been sentenced to 37 years in prison for murdering a teenage Stamford man in 2018, according to the Division of Criminal Justice.
The now 19-year-old Sirus Dixon killed Antonio Robinson in Stamford on May 31, 2018.
In July, Dixon was convicted of first-degree manslaughter.
Trial testimony suggested that Dixon and two others encountered Robinson under an overpass. After a confrontation, Dixon allegedly pulled a gun from his waistband and shot Robinson and his friend as they ran away.
