BUFFALO -- A Liberian man awaiting deportation because of a robbery conviction has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for throwing urine on a federal agent.

Federal prosecutors in Buffalo say 22-year-old Winston Bestman was sentenced Thursday after being convicted of assault on a federal officer.

Investigators say Bestman threw urine into the face of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer while being housed at the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility in Batavia last October.

Bestman was awaiting deportation to Liberia at the time because of a 2005 Staten Island robbery conviction.
