DENVER- Two brothers accused of killing five people at a Denver bar and trying to cover up the slayings by lighting the business on fire, have been advised of charges against them.

Lynell and Joseph Hill appeared in court Friday.

They face charges of first-degree murder, felony murder, robbery and arson, stemming from the killings early Wednesday morning.

Another suspect in the case, Dexter Lewis Junior, stood silently in court Thursday as he was advised of the same charges.

The three men are accused of killing the bar's owner and four others during what authorities believe was a robbery.
