2 Texas Men Arrested In Slaying Of Northern California Man

PORTLAND, OR. (CBS/AP) – Two Texas men accused of a killing a Northern California man last week have been arrested while authorities continue their search for a third.

Oregon State Police say 22-year-old Carroll "B.J." Ballard and 20-year-old Blake Sibley, of Denton, Texas, were booked Sunday into the Josephine County Jail on charges of murder and robbery. Police are looking for a third man, 23-year-old Marshall McKenna.

A 911 caller reported the death of 43-year-old Roger Huntington of Crescent City whose body was found Friday in his SUV near a Lake Selmac, Oregon boat ramp.

Police have released few details about the killing.

Court paperwork filed Monday said the three robbed Huntington at gunpoint, and McKenna is accused of pulling the trigger.

Ballard and Sibley are being held without bail.
