A MAN was sentenced to four years in prison yesterday after he admitted to having a banned gun on him on Nassau Street earlier this week.
Magistrate Lennox Coleby charged Christian Leadon, 26, with possession of a prohibited weapon and possession of ammunition.
Leadon was arrested by police after they found a black Austria Glock 19 pistol along with 16 rounds of ammunition tucked in his waist on Nassau Street at around 3am on February 26.
After pleading guilty to the charge and accepting the facts in his case, Leadon was sentenced to four years at the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.
