United States v. Mohamed
Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
Decided December 9, 2010No. 09-1637PublishedCited by 30 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
DiCLERICO, District Judge.
Omar Mohamed entered a conditional guilty plea to a charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, reserving his right to appeal the denial of his motion to suppress. On appeal, Mohamed contends that the manner in which he was detained constituted a de facto arrest without probable cause. As a result, Mohamed argues, the gun discovered when he was pat-frisked was fruit of an illegal search. We conclude that the gun was found during a valid investigatory stop and affirm the district court’s decision denying Mohamed’s motion to suppress.
