A 73-year-old Illinois man was sentenced Monday to five years in prison for driving a car into a planned abortion clinic and trying to set the building on fire last year.

Philip J. Buyno of Prophetstown also was ordered to serve three years of supervised release and to pay $327,547 in restitution, prosecutors said in a news release. U.S. District Judge Colin S. Bruce handed down the sentence.

Its fun when you live 30 minutes from it but your state is completely back asswards. Ive been asking Santa for the last few years for IL to adopt all of STL

The only thing keeping IL from turning into its neighbors to is everything north of I-80.
