SHEBOYGAN FALLS, Wis. (AP) -- Sheboygan Falls police say two juveniles are being held in the death of a woman who suffered blunt force trauma.

Police Chief Steven Riffel says one of the juveniles was acquainted with the 78-year-old victim. The woman was found by a family member Wednesday afternoon on the floor of her garage in Sheboygan Falls.

Police say some items were missing from the victim's home. Authorities say the juveniles were arrested early Thursday morning after search warrants were executed. Police are recommending first-degree intentional homicide charges against the juvenile males.

The teens are expected to be charged in adult court Friday morning.
