WAYNESBORO, Va – It is 10 years in prison for a man accused of striking a woman with a vehicle outside a Waynesboro restaurant last summer.

Gary Allen Beavers of Front Royal was scheduled to go to trial Friday on several felony charges. However, he reached a plea deal with prosecutors Wednesday during a hearing in Waynesboro Circuit Court.

The 35-year-old Beavers pleaded guilty to three counts of an amended charge of unlawful wounding. He was then sentenced to 15 years in prison with five of those years suspended.

Waynesboro Police report that he ran over the woman, who was holding a small child, outside of Los Panchos Mexican Restaurant on August 4th.

The child was unharmed, but the woman was taken to Augusta Health with injuries.
