A DuPage County jury found a 27-year-old Oak Park man guilty Wednesday of severely beating 27-year-old Kyle Cates while he was walking home from a Naperville bar during the early morning hours of May 19, according to the Daily Herald. 

Paul Magee could face between two and seven years in prison for the assault and a sentencing hearing will be set on Feb. 7, according to the Daily Herald. 

Cates told the jury he approached a sedan that pulled up near him while he was walking home after he heard yelling coming from the vehicle and was then approached by Magee who punched him several times and left him "lying in a pool of his own blood," according to the article.
