A June 25 court date is set for a convicted felon from Lewiston who was arrested last week after Nez Perce County sheriff’s deputies found six firearms in his home.

William MacLachlan, 51, faces six counts of felony unlawful possession of a firearm after authorities found the weapons during last Friday’s search of his Grandbea Lane residence - five of the weapons were loaded.

MacLachlan, a registered sex offender, is barred from owning firearms following his 1994 conviction in Linn County, Ore., on charges of kidnapping, rape, sexual abuse, and burglary.

He’s being held in the Nez Perce County Jail on $10,000 bond.
