Wimauma Man on Federal Supervised Release Indicted for Possession of Ammunition by a Convicted Felon
Tampa, Florida – United States Attorney Roger B. Handberg announces the return of an indictment charging Alfredo Davila, Jr. (30, Wimauma) with possession of ammunition by a convicted felon. If convicted, Davila faces a maximum penalty of 15 years in federal prison.
According to the indictment, on February 18, 2024, Davila, knowing that he had previously been convicted of a felony, was in possession of ammunition. At the time of the offense, Davila was serving a term of supervised release for his previous convictions. As a convicted felon, he is prohibited from possessing a firearm or ammunition under federal law.
An indictment is merely a formal charge that a defendant has committed one or more violations of federal criminal law, and every defendant is presumed innocent unless, and until, proven guilty.
This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office. It will be prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Jeff Chang.
This case is part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone. On May 26, 2021, the Department launched a violent crime reduction strategy strengthening PSN based on these core principles: fostering trust and legitimacy in our communities, supporting community-based organizations that help prevent violence for occurring in the first place, setting focused and strategic enforcement priorities, and measuring the results.
