Two more suspects are in custody in connection with the fatal shooting of a Port St. Lucie man last year.

William Rummage and Johnathan Sims, both 20-years-old and from Port St. Lucie, were arrested on Friday in the death of Beau Hartman

Rummage was arrested in Port St. Lucie, while Sims was found in Delray Beach.

Each one faces a number of charges, including first-degree felony murder, in connection with Hartman's slaying.

Hartman was at a friend's home on SE Darien Road in February 2016 when there was a knock on the door.

On the night of the shooting, someone looked out and saw a man who may have been covering his face with a mask. When Hartman went out the front door to see for himself, he was shot.

The apprehensions of Rummage and Sims bring the total number of arrests to three.

Hunter Boesch was charged last week in connection with Hartman's death.

“We anticipate there will be more arrests.  But at this time I can’t elaborate on the case.  The documents have been sealed by the courts," said Master Sgt. Frank Sabol with the Port St. Lucie Police Department.

Both Sims and Rummage are being held in the St. Lucie County Jail.  Their bonds were set at more than $300,000 each.
