LEWISTON - Charges have been filed against suspects in this weekend's armed home invasion.

Monday arrest warrants were issued for both Joshua Hieronymous and Nathaniel Shafer on charges of second-degree burglary, two counts of first-degree kidnapping and two counts of first-degree robbery with a firearm.

Bail was set at $250,000.

It all stems from accusations that the two stole five medical marijuana plants, methadone and a flat screen tv, among other items, from a trailer in Asotin after allegedly tying up and assaulting the residents.

Lewiston Police arrested the men in Lewiston. Police said stolen items were found at the residence on 14th Avenue.

Hieronymous and Shafer are in the Nez Perce County Jail, awaiting extradition to Asotin County.
