 The office of Congresswoman Victoria Sparks has now released a statement about her arrest on weapons charges at Dulles International Airport this past Friday. She was found to be in possession of a .38 caliber. Her office says Sparks accidentally carried the empty gun, which was in the pocket of her suitcase. Sparks did not have any magazines or bullets in the bag with the gun. Indiana residents are expected to pay slightly less than last year for their 4th of July cookouts.
