ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) - A man who threatened to kill a Massachusetts police chief has been sentenced to two months in jail.
The Sun Chronicle reports that 48-year-old Robert Kelleher, of North Attleborough, was sentenced Tuesday to serve 60 days of a six-month sentence after pleading guilty to threatening Attleboro Police Chief Kyle Heagney.
