GRANT COUNTY MAN TO BE SENTENCED ON FEDERAL CHARGE

Cabins, West Virginia resident Wesley Shane Haggerty faces up to 15 years in prison, after pleading guilty in federal court to the unlawful possession of a firearm. Haggerty, who was prohibited from having a firearm because of seven prior felony convictions and two misdemeanor domestic battery convictions, was reportedly waiving a gun; as officers arrived, Haggerty fled on foot with a pistol and was arrested after a short chase, according to the Cumberland Times-News.
