DICKINSON, N.D. (AP) — More charges have been filed against two Alabama fugitives accused of shooting at officers in southwestern North Dakota’s Stark County, robbing a Dickinson movie store and being involved in a chase and standoff with law enforcement near Gladstone.

Twenty-two-year-old Ashton Mink and his 25-year-old wife Jacquelin Mink have been charged with attempted murder and a second count of criminal conspiracy to commit murder.

The couple, along with Ashton Mink’s sister, 25-year-old Angela Mink, and 26-year-old Joshua Southwick, were charged earlier with criminal conspiracy to commit murder and criminal conspiracy to commit robbery.

Authorities said Southwick and Ashton Mink escaped from an Alabama prison in May. Angela and Jacquelin Mink allegedly helped them.
