The suspects in the rock-throwing death of 20-year-old Alexa Bartell appeared in Jefferson County Court and faced several additional charges than the ones initially brought against them when they were arrested last month, CBS Colorado reported.
Joseph Koenig, Nicholas "Mitch" Karol-Chik and Zachary Kwak are each facing 13 charges for throwing the rocks that killed Bartel and injured others, reported CBS Colorado. In addition to the first-degree murder with indifference charges, they are also facing attempted murder charges and multiple counts of assault and attempted assault, reported CBS Colorado.
Bartell was killed on April 19 while she was driving and talking on the phone with her friend. Officials say the suspects threw a large landscaping rock at Bartell's car that went through her windshield, striking and killing her, the sheriff's office said.
