Sawyer County authorities say they have two men in custody tonight in connection with that brutal murder of a 93-year-old Radisson, Wisconsin woman.

Cops got a break when they received a tip from somebody who knew one of the suspects. Now a 27-year-old and a 15-year-old, both from Radisson are in custody.

The adult man was arrested in Sarona, Wisconsin Thursday afternoon, while the teen was taken into custody near his home.

Officials say Irena Roszak's body was found Tuesday morning by a home healthcare worker. One residents says the crime has shocked their small community.

"Older ladies that are living alone are getting a little nervous over it--it's kind of scary to think, you know someone was murdered," said Kathleen Carli, Radisson resident.

The investigation is ongoing and authorities say more information will be released on Friday.
