A teenager who shot and killed a New York security guard who confronted egg-throwing youths on Halloween has been sentenced to 18 years in prison.
A judge imposed the second-degree murder sentence Monday on 19-year-old Nyanda Charley of Mount Vernon.
Charley had admitted to shooting 52-year-old Neville Webb on Halloween in 2007. The guard had tried to chase off a group of youths throwing eggs near the Mount Vernon apartment complex where he was working.
Webb worked as a prison guard in Jamaica for 25 years before coming to the United States in 2005. His family said his organs were donated to nine people.
