Police in Nevada arrested two men on charges of attempted murder for a December 19 robbery in downtown Reno in which the victim was still in the intensive care unit on Friday.

The Reno Police Department arrested 18-year-old Tyler Stokes on Thursday and 21-year-old Kale Collett Krigbaum on Friday.

Each faces charges of attempted murder, robbery, mayhem, conspiracy to commit robbery and unlawful restraint of a dog. Krigbaum was also picked up on an unrelated misdemeanor warrant.
