A state judge indicted two individual­s allegedly linked to the June 14 robbery at Campestre Golf Club in southern Mexicali, said the Attorney General’s office.

In a press release, authoritie­s said Ramiro “Doe” and Miguel Angel “Doe” were indicted under charges of robbery, carjacking and false imprisonme­nt.

According to the agency the suspects arrived armed to the golf course along with a third accomplice whom authoritie­s have not identified.

The suspects allegedly punched two security guards posted at the club entrance.

The agency reported that the suspects then entered the club premises and brandished their firearms against around 20 players who were holding a Father’s Day party.

According to the agency the suspects took 11 cell phones, jewelry, a Rolex watch, cash, identifica­tion cards and bank cards.

The suspects were arrested moments later thanks to the GPS of one of the cell phones.

The judge decided to keep the suspects in jail during trial and gave detectives four months to close the investigat­ion.
