KINGSTON, (Reuters) – A would-be hijacker who held  more than 180 people at gunpoint aboard a Canadian charter jet  in Jamaica in April was jailed for 20 years yesterday.  

Stephen Fray, 21, had demanded to be flown to Cuba after  storming the CanJet plane at Sangster International Airport in  Montego Bay, Jamaica’s prime tourist resort, on April 19.  

He was sentenced in a Montego Bay court to 20 years on a  charge of assault, 20 years for shooting with intent, 20 years  for robbery with aggravation and 18 for illegal possession of a  firearm and ammunition. 

But he will spend no more than 20 years in prison as the  sentences will run concurrently.
