ST. LOUIS – Andre McIntosh, 49, of St. Louis, Missouri, pleaded guilty to one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm. McIntosh entered his guilty plea today before United States District Judge Sarah E. Pitlyk. McIntosh is set to be sentenced on May 13, 2021.
Just before midnight on January 7, 2020, St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department officers patrolling the Jeff Vander Lou neighborhood discovered that the license plate of an unoccupied vehicle was registered to McIntosh, who was a non-compliant sex offender on parole from the Missouri Department of Corrections. McIntosh also had several outstanding traffic warrants.
Officers canvassed the area and, after locating McIntosh, asked McIntosh to stop. McIntosh refused the officers’ requests for him to stop, and instead started to run from the officers as they approached him. While running from the officers, McIntosh pulled a loaded .40 caliber Smith & Wesson firearm from his pocket and threw it. McIntosh was ultimately detained by police. A post-arrest computer inquiry of the Smith & Wesson firearm thrown by McIntosh revealed it to be reported stolen, and a post-arrest search of McIntosh revealed him to be in possession of fentanyl and methamphetamine. Prior to January 7, 2020, McIntosh had been convicted of one or more felony crimes punishable by a term of imprisonment exceeding one year.
The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department investigated this case.
