1Opinion of the Court
.MANION, Circuit Judge.
A jury convicted Calvin Biggs of possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine and possession of a firearm as a convicted felon. The district court sentenced Biggs to 360 months of imprisonment. Biggs appeals, claiming that the drugs and guns at issue should have been suppressed because he was arrested without probable cause and because his subsequent consent to search was involuntary. He also challenges the jury’s viewing of an exhibit during deliberations and the reasonableness of his sentence. We affirm Biggs’s convictions and sentence.
