KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — A man has been resentenced to seven years and eight months in prison in an October 2010 shooting that killed one man and injured another in Kansas City, Kansas.

The Wyandotte County prosecutor’s office announced Tuesday that Terran J. Baker also was ordered earlier this month to register as a violent offender upon his release and pay $5,000 in restitution.

The new prison term is 10 months shorter than what he was sentenced to in 2012 after pleading guilty to voluntary manslaughter in the death of Bernard Love and aggravated battery.

Baker sought relief under a new rule of criminal history classification, and a three judge panel ruled in December that Baker must be resentenced.
