OREGON -- The man who opened fire on Oregon police officers back in April has been sentenced to 27 years in prison.

A highly intoxicated Jeffery Belew fired shots at police at the Piccadilly East Apartments, after they'd been called to break up a fight between Belew and his brother. The officers weren't injured.

Belew pleaded guilty last month.
