SANTA ANA, Calif.—A 31-year-old man was convicted March 26 of stabbing two men in apparently unprovoked attacks months apart in Anaheim.

Erik Mejia Ureno was acquitted of two counts each of attempted murder, but was convicted of two felony counts of assault with a deadly weapon. Jurors also found true sentencing enhancements for inflicting great bodily injury on the victims. Jurors rejected sentencing enhancements for attempted premeditated murder, which would have led to a life sentence.
