The Justice Department says a grand jury charged Wendell R. McCarroll Jr. with possessing a firearm as a convicted felon and possessing a stolen firearm.

- The two-count indictment names McCarroll, 46, of Albany, Louisiana, according to the Justice Department.

Why it matters: The indictment alleges two federal firearm offenses; the charges are not findings of guilt.
