A Wichita man received a 10-year prison sentence after crashing through City Hall, narrowly missing several people.
According to reports, police officers asked Marcus Johnson, 33, to turn down his music earlier in the day, and the incident occurred because he was furious.
Authorities said Johnson became angered when a police officer told him to turn down the music in his car while he was parked at a south Wichita convenience store early on the morning of Jan. 7, 2008.
Johnson drove downtown, turned onto Main and then drove up a ramp into City Hall at an estimated 45 miles an hour.
The incident caused about $200,000 in damage and prompted the installation of temporary traffic barriers around the perimeter of the building grounds.
