Two Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies have been charged with beating an off-duty firefighter. According to an indictment unsealed Tuesday, deputies Joshua Titel and Brian Richards have been charged with assault and face a maximum of seven years in prison.
A judge Tuesday allowed both men to be free on their own recognizance pending a bail hearing next month. Authorities allege the two beat firefighter Stephen Paige and caused him "great bodily injury" in Pomona on June 24. All three men were off duty at the time.
Prosecutors say Paige had to have several weeks of medical treatment before he could return to work. A Los Angeles County Grand Jury handed down the indictment on Sept. 23
