A Washington man was sentenced in federal court Wednesday to an additional 24 months of incarceration for violating federal supervision.

Zack James Sadler, 32, formerly of Jefferson Avenue, Washington, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Nora Barry Fischer for failing to report his address to probation officers. Sadler had been convicted of reckless endangerment and illegally possessing a concealed firearm for pointing a semiautomatic handgun at drivers before fleeing in a vehicle.

In one of the cases, Sadler allegedly fired a round June 8, 2015, missing a driver as their vehicles passed each other on Walnut Street in Washington, court records state. The next day, a pregnant woman with her 5-year-old child told police a man later identified as Sadler pulled up next to her vehicle and pointed a handgun at her while she sat in a vehicle parked in a lot, court records indicate.

Sadler spent 60 months in federal prison after pleading guilty in 2009 to illegal possession of a firearm, and then was sentenced to 15 months in prison after pleading guilty to escape from federal custody in November 2013.
