ST. LOUIS (KMOV.com) -- A grand jury indicted Mark and Patricia McCloskey Tuesday on charges of exhibiting guns at protesters in a June incident in their neighborhood and added a charge of tampering with evidence for both members of the couple.

The McCloskeys made national news when they pointed guns at protesters from the lawn of their home on Portland Place on June 28. A search warrant was served Friday night.

Mark and Patricia McCloskey had previously been charged with felony counts of exhibiting weapons--for pointing guns at protestors outside their central west end home. They have long maintained they were protecting themselves and their property from people hurling threats.

The grand jury also added a count for each of them: of tampering. This, News 4 learned, stems from the pistol held by Patricia McCloskey and later turned over to police by attorney Al Watkins.

you're not invited!

These 2 will probably skate on the felony charges; they're accomplished, wealthy attorneys and will have endless supplies of RW money and publicity.
