A member of the 40th Ave Crip Gang was sentenced to 10 years in prison followed by three years of supervised release Sept. 25, 2017.

 

During a gang shootout with rivals, Antoine Gaye used a handgun May 25, 2016.

 

A car was repossessed June 20; inside the vehicle were Gaye’s wallet along with his identification and a stolen firearm.

 

The firearm was analyzed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN). NIBIN linked the firearm and Gaye to the May shootout and to another shooting which occurred Aug. 16.

 

The Nebraska District Court indicted Gaye and he was arrested Jan. 10, 2017. Gaye was held without bond until his court date due to his history of violent behavior and five prior felony convictions.

 

Gaye was convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm Aug. 18, 2017, and given the maximum sentence for his crime.
