An Ohio man has been sentenced to 30 months in prison for attacking someone he believed to be Jewish, JTA reported Friday.

Izmir Koch, of the Dayton suburb of Huber Heights, was sentenced last week for attacking Paul Marshall outside a Cincinnati-area restaurant in 2017. He was charged with committing a hate crime and lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
