A Homewood man will spend 30-to-60 years in prison for shooting and robbing a woman in 2017.
Jawan Johnson was sentenced Wednesday before Judge Randal Todd. A jury convicted him in February on charges of attempted homicide, aggravated assault and robbery.
Police arrested Johnson in July 2017.
Johnson was charged with following an 18-year-old woman from Braddock after she got off a Port Authority bus on the East Busway in Homewood. He pulled a gun from a backpack and shot the woman in the back.
Police said Johnson took her purse, which had $400 in it. The woman ran for help and collapsed in the 500 block of North Homewood.
The woman identified Johnson from a surveillance video. Police said another witness also identified Johnson from photos.
Johnson told police he was the man in the image, but denied shooting the woman.
