A 28-year-old Indianapolis man, Davion Andrews, has been sentenced to 51 months in federal prison for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
According to the indictment, on January 22, 2021, Andrews crashed a borrowed car into a guardrail on I-70. An Indiana State Trooper arrived at the scene and began investigating the crash. During the investigation, the trooper saw a firearm magazine in Andrews’ jacket pocket and later discovered a firearm in the car.
Further investigation revealed that, in 2020, Andrews was convicted of unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon in Marion County. Andrews was ordered to serve his sentence through Marion County Community Corrections.
At the time of the crash, Andrews had covered his GPS monitoring band with foil, which is often done by individuals trying to hide their location from Community Corrections personnel.
The sentence was imposed by U.S. District Chief Judge Tanya Walton Pratt, who also ordered that Andrews be supervised by the U.S. Probation Office for three years following his release from federal prison.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Michelle P. Brady prosecuted the case.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.
