Virginia man sentenced for December 2021 shooting

SALISBURY, Md. – A Virginia man has been sentenced to 50 years behind bars for attempted murder.

23-year-old Evron Strand was sentenced late last week to 50 years incarceration, with five of those years being without the possibility of parole, as mandated by statute.

During the late evening hours of December 8, 2021, Maryland State Police responded to Jersey Road in Salisbury for a reported shooting. Troopers found the victim suffering from seven gunshot wounds, including wounds to the chest and head. The victim was treated at TidalHealth Peninsula Regional and survived his injuries.

Strand was convicted in December 2022 of attempted second degree murder, firearm use in a crime of violence, and other related charges.
