PITTSBURGH

PITTSBURGH — A man jailed on federal charges that he threatened a police chief on Craigslist wants the indictment dismissed, claiming the insulting message was an exaggerated complaint and, therefore, free speech.

The federal grand jury indictment charging 30-year-old Adrian Stock, of Jeannette, was unsealed in August.

Authorities say Stock posted the message Feb. 9 after Irwin police Chief Joseph Pocsatko gave him a $110 ticket for driving while his vehicle's windows weren't clear of ice and snow.
