A Mishawaka man has been sentenced to more than 7 years in prison and 18 months more on supervised release…all for a weapons charges.

It was back in September of 2016 when prosecutors say 38-year-old Deandre Watson confronted a man he believed acted inappropriately toward his daughters.

Court documents say he went to the man’s apartment with his girls, hit the man with a 9 mm handgun, then locked him the truck of his own car.

The victim’s girlfriend called police and Watson was arrested, charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Watson has been convicted of three other felony offenses prior to that incident.
