A Manchester man has been busted for unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition, a crime that puts innocent lives at risk.

Queron Foreman, 27, of Manchester, pleaded guilty in federal court on Friday, May 2020 to unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition, United States Attorney Scott W. Murray announced today.

According to court documents and statements made in court, on May 10, 2020, a Manchester police officer conducted a traffic stop of a vehicle driven by Foreman. After a brief interaction, the officer asked Foreman to step out of the car. A pat search of Foreman revealed over $41,000 in cash. The officer located a loaded pistol under the driver’s seat. Officers later obtained a search warrant for the vehicle and found a quantity of marijuana.

Under federal law, Foreman is prohibited from possessing firearms and ammunition by virtue of previous felony convictions.

Foreman agreed to forfeit the cash, firearm, and ammunition to the United States. He is scheduled to be sentenced on May 25, 2021.

“In order to reduce violent crime, federal law prohibits convicted felons from possessing firearms,” said U.S. Attorney Murray. “To protect public safety, we will not hesitate to bring federal criminal charges against those who possess firearms unlawfully. I am grateful to the Manchester Police for identifying and disarming this convicted felon.”

This matter was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Manchester Police Department. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Anna Krasinski.

Foreman, a convicted felon, is facing serious consequences for his actions. His guilty plea is a significant step towards holding him accountable for his crimes.
