Washington - Mark David Chapman, the man convicted of shooting the famous ex-Beatle John Lennon in 1980, was denied parole on Tuesday by a New York parole panel.

A three-member panel of Parole Board Commissioners denied parole after an interview with Chapman Tuesday morning, according to the commission's media official.
Chapman, an inmate at New York state's Attica Correctional Facility, is next eligible for a parole interview in August 2012.
