Tennessee Man Faces Federal Gun Charge After Nashville 'No Kings' Protest Incident
Elijah Millar, a 19-year-old from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, faces federal charges for unlawful possession of a firearm after brandishing a gun at a "No Kings" protest in Nashville. The protest, part of a nationwide movement against Trump administration policies, was largely peaceful, but Millar's actions, including spitting at protesters and displaying a firearm, caused fear and led to his arrest. Millar was prohibited from possessing firearms under a 2023 conservatorship order and a 2024 court ruling that deemed him a disabled person needing care, restricting his access to guns. After his initial arrest on June 14, he was found carrying another loaded firearm days later, leading to additional charges. Acting U.S. Attorney Robert E. McGuire emphasized the protection of peaceful protest rights under the First Amendment and the importance of preventing armed individuals from endangering public safety. If convicted, Millar faces up to 15 years in federal prison and a potential $250,000 fine.
