According to KETK, the incident happened September 15.  Sheriff J.B. Smith says the gun was normally kept in a safe, but the grandfather had left it on an office desk following a recent disturbance &#8212; and that&#8217;s where the little boy found it.  Smith says Charles McLean could get a year in jail, a $10,000 fine, or both.

Smith adds that the McLean family has been cooperative throughout the investigation.  The sheriff earlier told KTBB that Charles McLean&#8217;s son was murdered a couple of years ago in a still-unsolved case. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; Charles McLean, age 60, was arrested Monday on a class A misdemeanor charge of making a firearm accessible to a child.
