Baltimore man sentenced to over six years for firearm offenses
BALTIMORE (WBFF) — A Baltimore man was sentenced to over six years in prison after pleading guilty to firearm charges, the U.S. Attorney’s Office of Maryland announced Thursday.
Michael Lemon, 22, was sentenced to six and a half years in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for unlawful possession of a machine gun and the possession of a firearm and ammunition by a prohibited person, officials reported.
On December 30, 2025, Baltimore police responded to multiple 911 calls about a group of young men breaking into a multi-unit residential building in Baltimore, according to the report.
Once on scene, officials said police saw Lemon fit the description in the 911 call and hurry to start a motorbike.
Police then arrested Lemon and found that he was in possession of a Glock pistol.
Authorities also noted that a machine gun conversion device, known as a "switch," was attached to Lemon's pistol, enabling the gun to fire automatically.
Lemon will now spend the next six and a half years in prison for these crimes.
