They are charged in the murder of 17-year-old Shadi Najjar and 18-year-old Artem Ziberov, who were shot and killed in the car in Montgomery Village back in June.

Police said the teens drove to Montgomery Village expecting to meet someone who wanted to buy tickets to Northwest High School's commencement ceremony.

Instead, investigators said the three men fired more than 30 rounds at them.
