JOSHUA TREE, Calif. A sheriff's spokesman says an attorney and another man who were shot repeatedly at a Joshua Tree law firm yesterday remain in critical condition.

Attorney Bill Weir and Rocky Favorite were shot multiple times at the J-T Law firm. A San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman says a third victim, 25-year-old Dawn Croom, was hospitalized with a wounded leg but later released.

Bernard Steppe was arrested shortly after the shooting for investigation of attempted murder. He's being held at Morongo Basin Jail on 500-thousand dollars bail.

Sheriff's spokeswoman Jodi Miller says Steppe lived on the same property as the law firm and may have worked for Weir in the past.
