LOS ANGELES (AP) - Dennis Farina may be able to carry a gun on-screen, but he won't be able to own one in California for several months. His attorney has pleaded no contest for him to a misdemeanor charge of bringing a weapon into a secure area at Los Angeles International Airport. He's been sentenced to up to two years of probation and has to pay about $2,000 in fines. And, while on probation, Farina cannot own or carry a gun. Farina is a former Chicago cop. He was arrested May 11th for having a .22 caliber semiautomatic handgun in his briefcase. He promptly apologized after his release, saying he forgot he had the gun in his bag.
