HANOVER COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) — A North Carolina man affiliated with a motorcycle gang pleaded guilty to having a handgun as a convicted felon on Wednesday. The gun was reportedly found during an April traffic stop in Hanover County.
Thirty-five-year-old Kevin Christian, II of Fayetteville, North Carolina, is a previously convicted felon who was convicted in 2018 of unlawful wounding, according to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). Felons cannot legally possess firearms or ammunition.
According to court documents, on April 28, Christian was driving a motorcycle on Interstate 295 North in Hanover without taillights. State troopers with Virginia State Police (VSP) attempted to conduct a traffic stop.
Christian did not immediately pull over, continuing to drive for two minutes despite the state troopers following him with lights and sirens on, the DOJ said. He then pulled over on the shoulder of an exit ramp.
