Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
David Lawrence Jensen appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges the 84-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and 924(a)(2), (d). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Jensen contends that the district court erred by imposing a four-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) for possession of a firearm in connection with a burglary. We review for clear error, see United States v. Newhoff, 627 F.3d 1163, 1170 (9th Cir. 2010), and hold there is none. The record reflects that a stolen gun was found in Jensen's residence, a credit card was stolen from the theft victim in the same incident, and an individual driving a car that fit the description of Jensen's car used the stolen credit card on the day on which the victim reported the theft. The district court did not clearly err in holding that this evidence was sufficient, by a preponderance of the evidence, to establish that Jensen took a firearm during the course of a burglary. See id. (district court's inference that defendant stole a firearm was reasonable based on circumstantial evidence, which "can prove a sentencing fact").
AFFIRMED.
