SAN MARCOS – Two Department of Public Safety troopers have been indicted on charges of official oppression in connection with an incident in which two Hays County jail inmates were roughed up.

Charlie Potter, 28, and Santiago Montez, 33, are free on $10,000 bond each. They were indicted and arrested late last month for events that took place in March. DPS spokesman Tom Vinger said both troopers were suspended with pay on Sept. 15.
