A Washington, D.C., man was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the murder of a man at a bus stop.
Jeffrey Britt, 19, pleaded guilty earlier this year in the murder of 21-year-old George Rawlings.
Prosecutors say Rawlings had just left the funeral of a childhood friend on November 11, 2009, when he encountered Britt and several other men.
The group followed Rawlings to a Metro bus stop and approached him as he boarded a bus.
Britt and another man fired on Rawlings, hitting him 11 times.
He later died from his injuries.
Britt pleaded guilty to second-degree murder while armed and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime of violence.
