An argument lasted minutes.
An argument lasted minutes.
The consequences lasted a lifetime.
A Buffalo-area woman is heading to prison for 15 years after using her car as a weapon — and killing a man.
Prosecutors say it started with a confrontation at a car wash in Cheektowaga. Words were exchanged. Tempers flared. A brief scuffle nearly broke out.
Then the men walked away.
That should have been the end.
Instead, Iyanna Scott, just 22 years old, got back into her vehicle, drove toward the men as they crossed the street — and hit one of them with her car.
He died from his injuries.
Scott later pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter. On Friday, a judge sentenced her to a determinate 15-year prison term, followed by five years of supervision.
