Two masked and armed men reportedly forced their way into a La Crosse apartment last week, injuring one man while allegedly looking for things to steal.

Now, one suspect has been charged with being a party to armed burglary in the case.

Bond is set at $2,500 for Travis Kidd of Onalaska.

A victim, who was punched in the face, thought he recognized one of the intruders, who had tattoos on his neck and arms, and identified him as Kidd after looking at Facebook.

Kidd, who is 6-foot-4, reportedly had a 9mm gun, while a shorter man carried a knife.

The two intruders wore ski masks and, apparently, left without taking anything.

Kidd has a history of theft and robbery convictions, including a role in a 2004 robbery at the old Maid-Rite Cafe on Caledonia Street.
