SW Idaho man sentenced for illegally selling firearms

BOISE – A southwestern Idaho man who unlawfully sold firearms has been sentenced to three years and four months in prison.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Boise said 27-year-old Fabian Gonzalez of Caldwell received the sentence Thursday in U.S. District Court.

Authorities said Gonzalez was not a licensed firearms dealer but sold tactical rifles, a sawed-off shotgun and other weapons to a government informant in 2017.

The firearms were recovered by agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
