PINEDALE, Wyo. (AP) — Two men accused of killing a man in Sublette County in 2007 have been arrested in Idaho.

The Sublette County Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday that Matthew Rae Vincent and Branden K. Hartman are facing several charges in the April 3, 2007, death of Richard Nystrom. They are awaiting extradition to Wyoming.

Investigators say Nystrom was killed while he was walking along Highway 191. His body was found about 2 miles from where he was attacked.

Vincent and Hartman are facing multiple charges, including first-degree murder, kidnapping and aggravated robbery.

The charges are based on new evidence, but investigators did not elaborate.
