South Bend Man Accused of Possessing Firearm Without a License
The streets of South Bend, Indiana, have seen another violent crime, this time involving a 19-year-old man. Kevin Becerril, a resident of South Bend, has been charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm.
According to law enforcement officials, the charges were filed as a result of an investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. If convicted, Becerril could face serious penalties, including imprisonment and fines.
The case has been assigned to Assistant United States Attorney Frank E. Schaffer, who will prosecute the charges.
