Syracuse Man Sentenced for Ambulance Drug Thefts

A judge in Huntington sentenced a 37-year-old former paramedic from Syracuse to a year in prison followed by three years of probation yesterday, for stealing pain killer from the Huntington ambulance on which he worked. Christopher Buckner had pleaded guilty last month to 11 felony charges. Before police arrested Buckner, he also worked for the North Webster EMS.
