A London man was arrested Saturday night in connection with a theft of a firearm.
Arrested and charged with theft by unlawful taking (firearm) and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon was Justin A. Handshoe, 23, Barbourville, Road, London.
According to the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Department, the department responded to a call at 1757 Lakeshore Drive, regarding the theft.
The investigation then revealed the victim had a 38 caliber stolen overnight and then uncovered the fact a suspect had been in the victim’s residence during the night of the theft.
Later the suspect, Handshoe, was interviewed by Deputy Scott West and turned the firearm over him, at which time a check revealed he had a prior felony conviction in Laurel County.
Also, arrested on Saturday for a parole violation was Scott Canada, 32, 112 Shannon Drive, Science Hill.
Canada who was paroled on Oct. 31, 2007, had the parole violation warrant issued for his arrest after he violated the terms of his parole by use of alcohol, leaving the county of supervision without permission, failure to complete after care and absconding parole supervision.
Originally he had been paroled on the charges of first-degree trafficking in a controlled substance first offense, trafficking in a controlled substance near a school, second-degree trafficking in a controlled substance first offense.
