Not Toy Car Parts: Escambia Man Pleads Guilty To Federal Drugs And Firearms Charges
December 31, 2025
An Escambia County man has pleased guilty to federal drug and firearms charges for allegedly ordering machine gun parts from China that arrived in a box labeled as toy car parts.
A federal grand jury returned an indictment charging Tre’Veonce Ezekiel Sanders, 19, with possession of a machine gun, possession of an unregistered firearm, and possession with intent to distribute marijuana.
The indictment says a package was labeled as being toy car parts, but U.S. Customs inspectors found it also contained pieces to build a machine gun device. During the execution of a search warrant at his home, officers reported finding a Glock with a similar device already installed along with nearly one-half pound of marijuana.
If convicted, Sanders faces up to 10 years’ imprisonment for each of the firearms offenses and up to five years’ imprisonment for the drug crime.
The case was a joint investigation by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
