Man Gets 15 Years for Crash

A Tampa man has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for a drunken driving crash that killed a 5-year-old girl.

As part of a deal with Hillsborough County prosecutors, 52-year-old Rolando Rojas pleaded no contest Thursday to DUI manslaughter.

Authorities say Rojas was intoxicated last July when he crashed his truck into a minivan carrying four children and two adults.

All six occupants were taken to a nearby hospital, and Lilly Mills was taken off life support the next day.

Rojas was not seriously injured.
