Forty-three-year-old /*Rakin Thabit*/, of Camden, pleaded guilty in April to charges of attempted murder, possession of a firearm, robbery and conspiracy. He was sentenced Thursday to 17 to 40 years in prison.
Officer /*Mark Uffelman*/ became emotional as he described in court how he was shot in the arm around 1:30 a.m. on June 24 as he and Officer /*David McAndrews*/ interrupted a robbery and chased Thabit and another suspect, 23-year-old /*Jonathan Massa*/, also of Camden.
Assistant District Attorney Caroline Keating said Thabit fired six shots at Uffelman from about 10 feet away.
Keating asked for a sentence of 30 to 60 years in prison.
