On April 21, 2023, 22-year-old Jeremias Cabral received a two-year sentence, to be served in the House of Correction as a result of his actions on November 4, 2022.

Cabral was convicted on charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon causing serious bodily injury, assault and battery on a police officer, and negligent operation of a recreational vehicle causing serious bodily injury, and operating a recreational vehicle on a public way.
