A federal grand jury has indicted a Lincoln man on child pornography charges following his arrest last month in a child sexual assault investigation.
Randall Hughes, 57, of 5133 W. Wilkins St., faces two counts of producing child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography, according to the indictment.
Lancaster County sheriff's deputies and U.S. Homeland Security investigators arrested Hughes on Dec. 15 following a four-hour standoff where he barricaded himself inside his northwest Lincoln home.
Investigators had come to the home to serve a search warrant, and Hughes hid in the basement and threatened to harm himself, according to Sheriff Terry Wagner.
The standoff was resolved peacefully when Hughes surrendered to the LSO Tactical Response Team, the release said.
