Authorities say they were tipped off to the location of the 21-year-old Richardson and 26-year-old Christian.

Police believe they, along with Katherine Payne and Anthony Ray Loague, were involved in a July 28 armed robbery. Officials say Payne and Richardson lured a man into an ambush set by Christian and Loague.

Payne and Loague are in jail in Monroe County. Richardson and Christian were awaiting extradition to Monroe County Friday.
