El Granada Man Sentenced to Prison

Prosecutors say the crime was gang related.

An El Granada man was sentenced Friday to seven years in prison for stabbing four people at a wedding in 2012, according to San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.

Wilmer Manuel Ucan, 20, was convicted on March 17 on the felony assault charges, Wagstaffe said.

Prosecutors said Ucan was attending a wedding on Jan. 28, 2012 in Half Moon Bay when he got into a gang-related fight outside the I.D.E.S. Hall around 11:20 p.m. and stabbed four people. Police said at the time that there were multiple suspects involved in the attack.

Ucan was arrested in February after being identified as a suspect.
