Justin Bannan, a former NFL and University of Colorado Boulder lineman convicted of attempted murder in a Boulder shooting, was sentenced Thursday to 16 years in prison.
Bannan, 42, was convicted in September of attempted first-degree murder extreme indifference, attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault with a deadly weapon and first-degree assault extreme indifference.
The 16-year sentence was the minimum allowed by state law due to the nature of the charges.
According to police, Bannan used a handgun to shoot a 36-year-old woman in the arm on Oct. 16, 2019, at Black Lab Sports, 3550 Frontier Ave.
