Greenbelt - The president of the North Beach chapter of the Hells Angels has pleaded guilty to federal drug and gun charges.

Thirty-eight year old John Beal of Dunkirk is scheduled to be sentenced March 24th in federal court in Greenbelt. He faces up to 20 years in prison for distribution of cocaine and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Beal was arrested last July after an undercover investigation of another motorcycle gang, the Warlocks.

Prosecutors say federal agents posed as Warlocks and went to a Hells Angels party in Calvert County. They saw semiautomatic pistols that Beal said has been strategically placed so gang members could use them immediately for protection.

Prosecutors say Beal was also seen giving cocaine to a Warlocks member and told one of the ATF agents he could provide the agent with cocaine.
