LAUREL, Miss. — A 31-year-old Jones County man is jailed on an insurance fraud charge.
The state attorney general's office tells the Hattiesburg American Terrell McAndrews of Heidelberg has been indicted and arrested on one count of insurance fraud following indictment by a Jones County grand jury.
McAndrews is accused of defrauding State Farm Insurance Co. by filing a false claim reporting his 2006 Nissan Sentra had been stolen.
He faces up to three years in prison and a $5,000 fine if convicted of insurance fraud.
McAndrews' arraignment has not been scheduled. He is incarcerated in Jones County on unrelated charges.
It could not be determined whether McAndrews had an attorney.
