Jorge-Antonio Lopez Alvarado and Tony Fabio Orozco were arraigned Monday in Traverse City District Court. They're charged in a Jan. 31 attack on 35-year-old Dwight Johnathan Thompson of Indianapolis.
A 15-year-old was arraigned Friday. He's charged as an adult and faces the same charges as the 21-year-old Alvarado and 18-year-old Orozco.
All three are being held and have requested lawyers. They face preliminary examinations Feb. 21.
