ELYRIA, OH — An Elyria man has been accused of illegally having a gun and trying to sell narcotics, the Department of Justice announced.

Demann Wilson, 30, was indicted on one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm and one count of possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance. He was investigated by the FBI and the Elyria Police Department.
