TOPEKA, KAN. - A federal grand jury in Topeka returned an indictment charging a Kansas man with multiple illegal firearms offenses.
According to court documents, Charles E. Colbert Jr., 26, of Wichita was indicted on one count of illegal possession of a machine gun and one count of prohibited person in possession of a firearm.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) is investigating the case.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Katie Andrusak is prosecuting the case.
An indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
