   MEMORANDUM

ROBERT H. WHALEY, Senior District Judge.

Defendant Adrian A. Washington appeals his conviction for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, claiming the district court erred by denying his motion for a Franks hearing. We review Washington’s challenge de novo, see United States v. Flyer, 633 F.3d 911, 916 (9th Cir.2011), and affirm.

To receive an evidentiary hearing pursuant to Franks v. Delaware, 438 U.S. 154, 98 S.Ct. 2674, 57 L.Ed.2d 667 (1978), the defendant must make a substantial showing that the government intentionally or recklessly omitted or falsified information and that such information was material to a finding of probable cause. United States v. Garcia-Cruz, 978 F.2d 537, 541 (9th Cir.1992). If, after the alleged falsehoods are excised and the alleged omissions are included, an affidavit would still provide a basis for a finding of probable cause, the errors and omissions are immaterial. Id.

Washington challenges an affidavit supporting a warrant to search his home for evidence of a drive-by shooting. Washington claims the affiant intentionally or recklessly stated that his prior arrest for first-degree assault involved a gun, when it in fact involved a knife. This claim is immaterial because even if the disputed text is excised, the affidavit contains sufficient facts for a finding of probable cause. Specifically, the affidavit contains the following undisputed facts: (1) the victim of a drive-by shooting described his attackers as two men in a silver 2000 Mercedes-Benz; (2) officers located a silver 1999 Mercedes-Benz with two shell casings resting on the driver’s-side wiper blade; (3) the shell casings were similar to those found at the scene of the shooting; (4) the vehicle was registered to Washington and parked at Washington’s address; (5) Washington had previously been arrested for first-degree assault; (6) Washington’s brother contacted law enforcement and claimed he committed the drive-by in Washington’s car as retaliation for an assault. These facts “reveal[ ] a fair probability that contraband or evidence” of the drive-by would be found at Washington’s home. United States v. Celestine, 324 F.3d 1095, 1102 (9th Cir.2003).

Washington also alleges that the affiant intentionally or recklessly omitted (1) additional details regarding the confession by Washington’s brother; (2) witness speculation regarding other possible suspects; and (3) a telephone call made by Washington to the police three hours after the shooting. The inclusion of the alleged omissions does not vitiate probable cause when considered with the undisputed facts. Accordingly, a Franks hearing is unwarranted.

AFFIRMED.
