Former UFC fighter Cain Velasquez was sentenced to five years in prison for a shooting that took place more than two years ago.

Velasquez appeared Monday in Santa Clara County court for the sentencing. He pleaded no contest to attempted murder and other charges last year in the case.

During a high-speed chase in Feb. 2022 in Morgan Hill and San Jose, investigators said Velasquez fired a handgun multiple times at a truck carrying three people, including a man accused of molesting the former UFC star's young relative.

One of the bullets hit and injured the driver in the arm.

Velasquez recently discussed the case on the Kyle Kingsbury Podcast and admitted he handled the situation the wrong way.
