路易斯安那州Baton Rouge重罪犯非法持枪判115个月：驾车逃捕撞车、车内查获手枪与霰弹枪
美国司法部路易斯安那中区联邦检察官办公室宣布，位于美国路易斯安那州的 Baton Rouge 男子 Marquis Square 因重罪犯非法持有枪支被判处115个月联邦监禁。联邦地区法官 John W. deGravelles 还判其刑满后接受3年监督释放，并下令没收涉案枪支。
Square 现年32岁。据其认罪时承认的事实，2024年9月4日，Baker 警局警员接报前往 Baker 的 Lavey Lane 处置一起可能涉及武器的滋扰事件，到场后遇到站在车旁的 Square，并在车下查获一支泵动霰弹枪。
Square 得知自己将被拘留后抗拒警员、不服从口头命令，并迅速驾车逃离。警员追赶至 Baton Rouge，其车辆撞毁后他又步行逃跑，最终在一处住宅后被捕。警方随后搜查其车辆，在乘客座的黑包内查获一支手枪与一个加长弹匣。
在持有这些枪支之前，Square 已有重罪前科：他2015年在 East Baton Rouge Parish 因简易抢劫被定罪，2024年又因重罪犯企图持有枪支以及向惩教机构带入、带出违禁品被定罪。
联邦检察官 Kurt L. Wall 称赞了烟酒枪炮及爆炸物管理局（ATF）、Baker 警局与 Baton Rouge 警局的工作。案件由助理联邦检察官 Will Morris 起诉，他同时担任刑事部门主管。
Baton Rouge Felon Sentenced to 115 Months in Federal Prison for Possessing Firearms
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana — The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Louisiana announced that Marquis Square, 32, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was sentenced to 115 months in federal prison following his conviction for possession of firearms by a convicted felon. U.S. District Judge John W. deGravelles further sentenced Square to three years of supervised release following his term of imprisonment and ordered the firearms involved to be forfeited.
According to admissions made as part of his guilty plea, on September 4, 2024, officers with the Baker Police Department were dispatched to Lavey Lane in Baker, Louisiana, in reference to a disturbance possibly involving weapons. On arrival, officers encountered Square standing near a vehicle and recovered a pump shotgun underneath the vehicle.
Once Square was made aware that he was being detained, he resisted officers, did not comply with their verbal commands, and quickly fled in the vehicle. Officers pursued Square into Baton Rouge, where he crashed his vehicle. He then ran from police until he was captured behind a nearby residence. A subsequent search of the vehicle yielded a black bag on the passenger seat containing a handgun and an extended magazine.
Before possessing the firearms, Square had been convicted in East Baton Rouge Parish in 2015 of simple robbery and in 2024 of attempted possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and taking contraband to and from penal institutions.
U.S. Attorney Kurt L. Wall praised the work of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Baker Police Department and the Baton Rouge Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Will Morris, who also serves as Criminal Chief, led the prosecution.
