An accused man has told the Supreme Court he had no knowledge of a firearm allegedly found at a house where he had gone to assist a friend planning to surrender to police.

In his trial before the No. 4 Supreme Court, D’Nairo Greaves testified that he was helping a friend in surrendering to the police when officers arrived, handcuffed him, and questioned him about a firearm.

Greaves, of Third Avenue, New Orleans, is accused that on July 20, 2022, he had in his possession a ‘19 Gen 4’ 9mm Luger calibre pistol without a valid licence and 14 rounds of ammunition without a valid permit.
