Two Men Facing Federal Charges For Possession Stolen Firearms

Last updated on Tuesday, August 28, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS) - Two local men are facing federal charges after police found them with stolen firearms.

U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler says 19-year-old Austin Greene of Bedford and 18-year-old Terry Morris II of Cloverdale were arrested last week and remain in the custody of the U.S. Marshal's Service. Morris and Greene each face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

On July 31, 2018, Cloverdale police contacted the ATF after someone stole more than 30 firearms from Guy's Gun Locker.

Federal authorities said law enforcement quickly discovered that Greene and Morris were in possession of some of the stolen firearms and initiated undercover gun purchases from both men. In each case, the guns had been stolen in the gun store burglary, federal investigators said.

The ATF and Cloverdale police are still investigating the theft.
