    A LIMOUSINE driver in New York has been convicted of manslaughter for a 2018 wreck that killed 20 people.

    Nauman Hussain, 33, the former service manager for Prestige Limousine, now faces up to 15 years in prison.

    Prosecutors said Hussain failed to conduct routine inspections on the stretch-style 2001 Ford Excursion. His lawyers blamed mechanics for the crash.

    It was America’s deadliest transport crash since 2009, officials said at the time.

    The collision killed 17 people who were going to a surprise 30th birthday party, the driver and two bystanders.

    Applause broke out in court after the jury’s sentence was delivered on Wednesday, according to CBS News, the BBC’s US partner.

    Kevin Cushing, who lost his son Patrick Cushing in the crash, told AP news agency: “I’m certainly glad he’s convicted and I believe he’s getting a punishment that he deserves, but I take no joy in that.”

    Defence lawyer Lee Kindlon said his client, who is due to be sentenced on 31 May, was “heartbroken” by the outcome.

    The crash took place on 6 October 2018 in the upstate New York village of Schoharie.
