MARION, Ind. (WANE) - Two people are under arrest in Kentucky in connection with the murder of a Marion man on July 21.

Police have arrested Lacy Bradley, 21, of Celina, Ohio and James Griffith, 33, of Marion, Indiana on multiple charges, including two counts of Murder as well as Robbery Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury and Conspiracy to Commit Robbery with a Deadly Weapon. They are being held in Franklin County, Kentucky.

Kentucky State Police arrested Bradley and Griffith along with Eddie Herring, 39, of Fort Wayne, on Wednesday, July 25. Herring is not being charged in the muder.
