CARROLL, Iowa, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Two men arrested for attempting to break into an apartment in an Iowa town had crudely painted their faces black with permanent marker, police say.
Carroll police said a woman called 911 at 11:32 p.m. Friday to report two men trying to break into an apartment and officers soon after pulled over a car matching the description given by the woman, the Carroll Daily Times Herald reported Thursday.
Police said Matthew Allan McNelly, 23, and Joey Lee Miller, 20, whose faces were blackened with permanent marker, were arrested without incident and charged with second-degree attempted burglary. McNelly was also charged with a count of driving while intoxicated.
The men were released on bond Monday and are due in court for preliminary hearings Nov. 10.
