The third culprit, a seventeen year old Guatemalan, was one of three minors who police rounded up after they found them with a gun, a military knife, and other items that were allegedly to be used for the crime. The entire group included six persons. The other person forty-seven year old Honduran national Miguel Mayorga was charged with the rest with Conspiracy to Commit Robbery at the residence.
