NYC truck and bike-path attacker sentenced to multiple life sentences.
TL;DR Summary
Sayfullo Saipov, an Islamic State supporter, has been sentenced to 10 life sentences plus 260 years for killing eight people in a truck attack in New York in 2017. The Uzbekistan national used a rented truck to attack pedestrians and cyclists at random on Manhattan's West Side, shouting "God is great" in Arabic. He hoped the atrocity would earn him membership of the group. Saipov was spared the death penalty when a jury did not unanimously agree to impose one at a hearing last week.
