(02-20) 15:56 PST FORESTVILLE --

Sonoma County sheriff's investigators released grainy photos Wednesday of two men they want to question in connection with a triple slaying tied to a marijuana deal.

The men are believed to be associates of Mark Cappello, 46, of Central City, Colo., who was arrested during a car stop in Alabama last Thursday in connection with the slayings, authorities said.

The men being sought were filmed by surveillance cameras at a Chevron gas station in St. Helena the day before the Feb. 5 slayings. Investigators also released a picture of a 1990s Ford Ranger connected to the men, whose names are not known.

Investigators say Cappello was involved in shooting three men to death near Forestville on Ross Station Road. The three were intending to buy "a large quantity of marijuana," but instead they were shot, said sheriff's Lt. Dennis O'Leary.

The victims were Raleigh Butler, 26, of the Truckee area; Richard Lewin, 46, of Huntington, N.Y.; and Todd Klarkowski, 42, of Boulder, Colo.
