PULASKI COUNTY, MO-- A judge sentenced 32-year old Cody Willcoxson to two 30 year sentences, which are set to run concurrently.

Willcoxson pled guilty in April to two counts of assault and attempted assault on law enforcement officers.

The charges stem from a May 2011 incident when police say Willcoxson used a fake ID to try and get into Fort Leonard Wood.

After running his car through a security gate, he led police on a 120-mile-an-hour pursuit through Rolla while firing more than 90 rounds out his window.

Willcoxson is a 3-time escapee from the Delaware County Jail, where he was serving time for burlgary.
