Johnnie Brazier, owner of United Sales and Pawn, faces multiple charges stemming from the illegal sale of firearms, and his arrest concludes a three month investigation by the federal Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms.
The investigation began when a gun recovered from an aggravated assault in Philadelphia was traced back to the 1900 Shorter Ave. pawn shop.
ATF agents began a series of undercover purchases, and the agency says it discovered that Brazier had been selling firearms without appropriately running backgroud checks and once traded an SKS rifle for marijuana
