Two men were charged in Worcester in connection with a home invasion and murder last December, according to Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early Jr.

Ramon Millan, 37, of Bridgeport, Conn., and Jose Crespo, 32, of Newark, N.J. were both indicted for murder, home invasion, three counts of aggravated kidnapping, arson of a dwelling and armed robbery while masked.

They will be arraigned in Worcester Superior Court at a future date.

Both men have been held without bail.

A third defendant in the case, Wilfredo Muniz, 31, of Bridgeport, Conn., was indicted under the intimidation of a witness statute for misleading a police investigation. He also will be arraigned at a future date in Worcester Superior Court.
