A Sacramento man was sentenced to five and a half years in prison Tuesday for assaulting a federal officer and possession of a weapon to further a drug trafficking crime.

In February, Dustin Joseph Albini, 36, pleaded guilty to grabbing a Bureau of Land Management officer’s groin and biting his leg in 2015 while officers were executing a search warrant on a marijuana growth operation, The Sacramento Bee reported.
