According to the Milford Times, both men were suspects in a home invasion that took place in Highland July 17 at home on the 2100 block of Canterwood.
The article states a chainsaw, drill and two leaf blowers were among the items taken from the home's attached garage. An iPad, GPS, Nintendo DS games were taken from the vehicles parked in the garage.
