EDMONTON- An Edmonton man sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison for breaking a woman’s arms with a crowbar in a road-rage attack won’t be going to jail for now.

Jared Eliasson is seeking a mistrial and was granted bail moments after he was sentenced Thursday pending his appeal.

His sentence includes 18 months of credit for time served.

Eliasson, who is 31, was acquitted in April of attempted murder but found guilty of aggravated assault, possession of a weapon and damage to property.

The woman testified that in March 2017 she had honked at Eliasson for blocking an intersection with his vehicle, and he followed her home and attacked her.
