A Norwegian man who took a wrong turn onto a one-way street in an Arizona town and drove through a street festival has been sentenced to more than seven years in state prison. John Kristoffer Larsgard, 33, was convicted of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and six other charges in Navajo County last month. A reporter for Norway’s largest paper, VG, wrote about the trial in March, drawing international attention.

American justice at work with over zealous prosecutors and deranged judges.
