21-year old Caleb Williams is in custody.

Prosecutors have filed charges against three suspects, including a 17-year-old boy, suspected in a last week.

Caleb Williams, 21, is accused of 30 counts in the case, including attempted second-degree murder, first-degree burglary, felony menacing and false imprisonment, the 1st Judicial District attorney’s office announced Friday.

, 19, faces three counts, including accessory to burglary, accessory to robbery and accessory to menacing. All are Class 5 felonies.

Authorities have not identified the juvenile suspect in the case or said what charges he faces.

Williams and Johnson are being held at the Jefferson County jail in lieu of bail that has been set at $500,000 and $200,000, respectively, according to prosecutors.

A fourth suspect, 20-year-old Cody Aaron Jones, is sought on an arrest warrant. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call Golden police.

The home invasion happened on the night of May 16, when police say three male suspects knocked on the door of a home to steal drugs and $10,000. But they went to the wrong residence.

Homeowner Jesse Swift, a middle school teacher, suffered stab wounds in the encounter.

Police have released a chilling 911 call from Jessica Swift, Jesse Swift’s wife, as she pleaded for help outside her home.

“Oh, my God, please help, please, my husband is bleeding very badly!” she screamed.

“They knocked on my door, and they came into my house. … We have one of them down, inside of our house,” Jessica Swift said, her voice shaking during the 3-minute, 22-second call.

“We have two kids downstairs in the basement,” Jessica Swift said.

One suspect, Williams, was arrested on the night of the incident. Jesse Swift stabbed him in self-defense, police said.
