MADISON CO., Ill. – Two men have been charged in the murder of a 45-year-old man, the Major Case Squad of greater St. Louis announced on Tuesday.

Ralph Evans and Julius Evans are charged with two counts of first-degree murder.

45-year-old Tyrone Grady was found shot to death in Glen Carbon on Feb. 11.

Ralph and Julius are each being held on a $2 million bail.

During the press conference on Tuesday, Madison County sheriff John Lakin said Madison County is starting to feel the effects of being so close to one of the most dangerous cities in the United States. “What we have to understand here and this may sound familiar to some folks in we can’t build a wall around Madison County and expect St. Louis to pay for it.”
