----------
HOLLY HILLS, Fla. - Investigators arrested two 15-year-olds in the beating death of a homeless man, bringing the number of teenagers facing charges to five.
The two teens were scheduled to make their first court appearances Saturday, but the state Department of Juvenile Justice would not comment on their status. One is charged with second-degree murder and the other faces an aggravated battery charge.
Authorities said the two teenagers, along with a 14-year-old and 18-year-olds Justin Stearns and Jeffery Spurgeon were involved in the fatal beating May 25.
Stearns, Spurgeon and the 14-year-old were indicted Thursday by a grand jury on charges of first-degree murder and murder conspiracy.
Michael Eugene Roberts, 53, was kicked and crushed when teens jumped on a log on his chest in woods where the group was known to hang out behind a car wash. His body remained in the woods until Spurgeon's mother called authorities three days later to report she had overheard something about a beating.
No more arrests were expected, but the investigation is continuing, sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said.
