Oakland, a 33 -year -old Oakland man, was sentenced to seven years in a federal prison for illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, prosecutors said.
Pedro Juárez was convicted of the position on September 25, according to the office of the United States prosecutor.
On August 16, 2023, Juarez forced a woman who knew how to travel with him from San José to San Francisco, prosecutors said. After he let the woman go, she called 911 and the officers descended in her location.
Juarez tried to run, prosecutors said, added that he took a gun loaded with his waist and pointed it to the officers. His arm hit a railing, at the beginning and the gun fell to the ground.
Having been previously convicted of a serious crime, Juarez was forbidden to possess firearms or ammunition.
In addition to the seven -year prison mandate, Juarez received the order to fulfill three years of supervised release, which will begin when he leaves the prison, and will lose his interest in the firearm and ammunition.
Juarez is in custody and will begin to comply with his sentence immediately, prosecutors said.
