COUNCIL BLUFFS, IA - On Sept. 14, 2015, Daniel Eugene Hannan, a 40 year-old resident of Council Bluffs, Iowa, was sentenced by Senior United States District Court Judge Robert Pratt to 120 months in prison on the charges of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and possession of a stolen firearm, announced United States Attorney Nicholas A. Klinefeldt. Hannan was also ordered to serve five years of supervised release following the period of imprisonment.
The investigation of this matter began as a result of Hannan fleeing from law enforcement. When located, Hannan was found to have a large amount of methamphetamine which Hannan intended to distribute. A subsequent search warrant located additional methamphetamine and a shotgun which had been stolen from a burglary in Red Oak, Iowa. Hannan entered a guilty plea to the charges of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and possession of a stolen firearm on June 4, 2015.
The investigation of this matter was conducted by the Southwest Iowa Narcotics Task Force, the Council Bluffs, Iowa, Police Department, and the Red Oak, Iowa, Police Department. The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
