Civil Registry Worker Gets Nearly Two Years for Illegal Gun, Ammo<\/strong><\/p>

A Civil Registry employee has been sentenced to nearly two years in prison after pleading guilty to illegal firearm and ammunition possession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sedeki Akelo Andre, 28, of Gambles, received concurrent sentences of one year and nine months for possessing a 9mm Taurus pistol and one year for seven rounds of ammunition. Senior Magistrate Emanuel handed down the sentences on Thursday.<\/p>

Police said the case began on Nov. 16, when an officer spotted Andre entering a nightclub with a bulge at his waist. When approached, Andre became uncooperative and resisted a search, telling the officer, \u201cEverything good. Me good. Na touch me,\u201d before a security guard stepped in to help. The firearm fell from Andre\u2019s clothing during the struggle.<\/p>
