Two Capital Murder indictments have been handed down in the September shooting death of an armored car guard.

On September 1, a Garda armored car was making a delivery to the Big Jim's check cashing shop in the 100 block of South Carroll.

As 52-year-old guard David Ruback was about to go in the back door of the business with a cash delivery, the guard was ambushed.

Police say 24-year-old Francisco Montez and 24-year-old Genaro Rivera had staked out the store. Security video shows one man armed with a rifle attacking Ruback, then running to a waiting car with a bag of cash.

Ruback did not survive the attack.

Both Rivera and Montez face possible death penalty trials. Both are being held on more than $2 million bonds.
