Cedric Durham, Jr., 22, of Tampa, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Thomas P. Barber to four years in federal prison for possessing a firearm as a convicted felon. Durham pleaded guilty on November 28, 2022.

According to court documents, on March 6, 2022, a shooting occurred at the Pin Chasers Bowling Arcade in Tampa. Durham was said to be the initial target. Reportedly, he returned fire.

Law enforcement arrived on the scene as individuals were dispersing from the area in fear.

Durham was arrested following the shooting after law enforcement said they observed him leaving the scene. The vehicle in which Durham was traveling was stopped, and a firearm was allegedly found in Durham’s possession.

The firearm is said to have matched the forensic evidence at the scene, indicating that Durham had returned fire using 30 rounds of ammunition.

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida, Durham was previously convicted of a felony offense and, therefore, is prohibited from possessing a firearm or ammunition under federal law.
