BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - A Buffalo woman could spend up to 19 years in prison for going on a terrifying shooting spree outside of a downtown nightclub.

Janiera Ross, 20, was sentenced Monday for attempted murder. In October, she pleaded guilty to shooting Jherilynn Williams in the head and abdomen outside of Playhouse Nightclub last March.

While fleeing that shooting, Ross also fired several shots at a car full of UB students. None of the students were injured.
