Three Sentenced in Ohio Bridge Bomb Plot

Jail terms range from eight to 11 years

A self-described anarchist who calls himself "Cyco" got an 11-year prison sentence Tuesday for his role in a failed attempt to blow up an Ohio bridge.

Authorities say the mohawk-wearing Douglas Wright was the suspected ringleader of the plot. He and co-conspirators Brandon Baxter and Connor Stevens set their sights on the Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge, officials say, which spans the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and carries a four-lane highway.

Baxter, a.k.a. "Skabby," was sentenced to more than nine years in prison; Stevens got eight years. The sentences were announced in federal court in Akron, Ohio.
