DENVER—A judge has set bond at $200,000 apiece for two men accused of holding a hostage during a six-hour armed standoff at a RadioShack store in Denver.
Denver County Court Judge John Marcucci set the bond Saturday for 19-year-old Taveuan Williams and 23-year-old Michael Annan. The men were informed they were being investigated for attempted first-degree murder of a police officer, kidnapping and aggravated robbery.
Investigators say the standoff began as an attempted robbery and ended peacefully Friday afternoon when the suspects released 28-year-old hostage Chris Nimerfroh and surrendered. Police Chief Robert White says one or both suspects fired a weapon during the standoff but no one was injured.
The Denver Post ( ) reports neither man spoke at Saturday’s hearing, and friends and family members of the two declined to comment afterward.
