WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A jury was selected on Wednesday in the trial of President Donald Trump's longtime adviser Roger Stone in a criminal case stemming from former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's probe that detailed Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election.

Stone, who left the proceedings early on Tuesday's opening day of jury selection looking ill and complaining of food poisoning, arrived at the courthouse shortly before 9 a.m. (1400 GMT). Asked by a Reuters reporter if he was feeling better, Stone nodded in the affirmative.
