Police have two suspects in custody for the shooting death of 27-year-old Adam Garcia, which happened Tuesday morning in Sparta, Wis.

Two suspects are jailed in Monroe County on murder charges.

Matthew Rasmussen, 22, was arrested Wednesday morning during the search of a home on County Highway A in Tomah, Wis.

That came hours after police in New Lisbon, Wis., caught up with the other suspect, 22-year-old Douglas Wood. 

Rasmussen also is suspected of armed robbery. Both men will make their first court appearances Friday. 

Early Tuesday, Garcia was found unconscious in a Sparta house after being shot. He later died at the hospital.
