A YOUNG woman has today been jailed for five years for the manslaughter of a man who died under the wheels of her car.

Mother-of-two Naomi Myers, 22, was also banned from driving at Newcastle Crown Court this morning.

She admitted the manslaughter of Shaun Dalby at an earlier hearing.

Mr Dalby, 28, suffocated under the weight of Myers' Fiat Punto in the car park of the Co-op store in Coxhoe, County Durham, in the early hours of February 2 last year.
