KINGMAN – A 5.5-year prison term was imposed January 22 for a Fort Mohave man arrested for drug and weapon offenses after a traffic stop last summer. The punishment imposed by Judge Doug Camacho was mandated in a plea agreement.
Mohave County Sheriff’s reports indicated Steven Anthony Galeana was pulled over for expired registration at 3:20 a.m. on July 4 at the intersection of River Valley Road and River Valley Place. Officers reportedly confiscated a handgun, 26 grams of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
Galeana pleaded guilty to misconduct involving weapons as a prohibited possessor. He also pleaded guilty to theft for removing items from a storage unit in February last year.
Judge Camacho ordered Galeana to pay more than $7,300 restitution as reimbursement for the stolen items and storage unit repairs.
