A Michigan City man was sentenced to over seven years in prison after pleading guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

Santana Miller, 37, was sentenced to seven years and three months followed by three years of supervised release.

In April of 2022, Miller was in possession of a handgun and a rifle while in Michigan City, according to case documents.

At the time, Miller was on federal supervised release for a controlled substance conviction, reports said.

His criminal history shows that he has four prior felony convictions, which prohibits him from possessing the firearms.
