A Pittsburgh man is being charged after lying on a gun-purchase form, hiding his criminal record. Percy Ford is charged with making a false statement during the sale or transfer of firearms as well as unsworn falsification to authorities. State police say Ford tried to by a pistol from a shop in Hanover Township, and signed forms saying he was not prohibited from purchasing a firearm, and also checked a box saying he had never been convicted of a felony, when, in fact, he had. Ford is now awaiting a preliminary hearing scheduled for Monday, in Beaver County Court.
