The Logan County man who admitted shooting and killing a teenager while hosting a drinking party has been sentenced to five years in prison. 20-year-old Evan Hoffman told police he shot 16-year-old Brandon Doseck in self-defense. Hoffman claimed Doseck threated him after being told to leave the party last December and was shot when he returned and kicked in a door. The victim's father says his son was there to collect his belongings.
