AUBURN â A Hudson man was sentenced Monday to serve two years in prison for intimidation while armed with a knife, a crime he committed just two months after being released from prison on parole for murder.

At age 16 he committed murder, and on his 17th birthday he was sentenced to 45 years in prison by a Wells County court.
