JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- A March 19 sentencing date has been sent for man convicted on a charge of theft of government property related to guns taken from an FBI agent's car while it was parked in front of his house.
 
Court records say that Christopher Ryan Burkett will be sentenced in U.S. District Court in Hattiesburg.
 
Burkett was charged in the case with Cameron Undrae Eatmon and Glenn Eddie Gholar.
 
Prosecutors say Eatmon broke into the car in Hattiesburg on June 6, took a submachine gun, assault rifle, shotgun and other equipment.
 
He allegedly gave the guns to Burkett. Authorities say Burkett spread the weapons out on his bed, took a cellphone photograph and sent out sales pitches by text message.
 
Gholar is charged with buying two of the guns.
