DAVENPORT, Iowa — A Burlington man was sentenced to prison on Tuesday in Davenport on a firearm charge, according to a release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
29-year-old Christopher Joseph Conrad was sentenced to 96 months in prison, stemming from a January domestic violence incident. On January 9, Burlington police responded to a residence after a victim reported Conrad was in violation of a no-contact order, in possession of a firearm and threatening them. Responding officers found Conrad with a loaded handgun.
Conrad had previously been convicted of assault charges against the same victim and was violating an active no-contact order at the time of the offense.
