According to the Beaumont Enterprise, a Texas newspaper, a man involved in an accident that crashed the car of late rapper Pimp C in 2006 has been sentenced to 70 years in prison.

The car crash stemmed from an incident that took place after a video shoot in Port Arthur, Texas. The man charged in the crash, Shawn Donnell Jones, was shot at shortly after the video shoot.

As a result of the shooting, Jones fired back with a SKS assault rifle and a car chase ensued. Jones fired several shots at Pimp Cs car while his accomplice Joseph Paul Smith drove the vehicle. The chase ended when Jones car rammed into Pimp Cs car at an intersection. Both Jones and Smith were eventually captured by police.

Aside from the incident involving Pimp Cs car, Jones already has 19 previous criminal convictions and 90 incidents of misconduct while in prison.

"We were most gratified by the jury verdict against a chronic offender who has been a terror in the city of Port Arthur for years, prosecutor Pat Knauth explained to the Beaumont Enterprise. Who knows who else might have been injured or killed by his actions if the police hadn't been right on top of this situation?"

Jones will not be eligible for parole until about 30 years after his prison sentence begins.

Although Jones was sentenced to 70 years in prison he is still facing another aggravated assault charge. He will appear in court today, May 4, to face that charge.
