Two Savannah men in federal prison for assaulting officer during stolen gun deal

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - Two Savannah men have been sentenced to more than nine years in federal prison after pleading guilty to assaulting a federal officer and using a firearm during a crime of violence, according to court officials.

Terry Rashad Flaggs and Jaidyn Jaquan Greene, a pair of 19 and 20-year-old’s of Savannah were in possession of a stolen fire arm in November of 2025, according to officials. Court documents and testimony stated the two were attempting to sell the firearm.

The owner of the firearm said he found the Glock Model 34, 9 mm pistol for sale online and notified the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Officials said an undercover agent with the ATF then arranged a meet up in attempt to purchase the stolen firearm.

Flaggs and Greene tried to overpower the agent during the exchange, according to officials. The two pulled a gun on the agent and demanded the stolen firearm back after receiving payment.

Savannah Police officers monitoring the operation said they moved in as a struggle broke out. Investigators reported Flaggs and Greene tried to run but were caught, and officers recovered both firearms.
