? Authorities filed more charges Friday against two men accused in a series of shootings that killed seven people in the Phoenix area, including five counts of murder against one of the men.

In addition to the murder charges, Dale S. Hausner, 33, was indicted on counts of drive-by shooting, attempted murder and aggravated assault. His suspected accomplice, Samuel John Dieteman, 31, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, attempted murder and drive-by shooting.

Both men were also charged with arson.

The latest charges include felony counts stemming from two drive-by shootings – on July 7 in Phoenix and July 11 in Glendale – which previously were not linked publicly to the case.

According to the indictment, Hausner or Dieteman, or both, have been charged in 40 cases, ranging from murder to arson. However, police said their investigation was continuing.
