DALLAS - Police say they have arrested two men accused of shooting and killing a security guard in Old East Dallas.
24-year-old Francisco Montez and 21-year-old Genaro Rivera have been charged with capital murder in the shooting of David Ruback on Sept. 1.
Montez's arrest was announced Wednesday morning. Rivera's was announced hours later on Wednesday afternoon.

Ruback, 52, was standing at the back of a van getting ready to deliver cash to the store.

Two Gardaworld armed security guards were delivering cash to the store in the Baylor Meadows neighborhood, east of Downtown Dallas. They were shot by two armed suspects wearing black armor gear and carrying long rifles. One of the guards, 52-year-old David Ruback, died.
The video shows both suspects dressed in all black hop out of the car, the passenger has a rifle.
The shooting happens outside of the camera's view, but it does show a gunman running off with a bag of cash.
Ruback worked as a security guard at Gardaworld for more than 20 years.
Ruback's girlfriend Terry Ball spoke with FOX 4 after the arrest.
"Every day has been a struggle since he died. I've cried every day," she said.
Ball says she is "so glad" that an arrest has been made.
She was worried that as time passed there would never be an arrest.
"There's some relief there hope that maybe we'll have justice in this, but it still doesn't bring him back," Ball said. "That's the hard part. That he doesn't get to come home when this is over."
Ball said there is something she'd like to say the suspects.
"Why would you think that it is okay to take a life over a bag of money?" she said. "It's not just his life that you took. You took a life away from me. You took my future. You took a life away from his friends, from his family. You took that from all of us."
Police are asking anymore with information about the case to give them a call.
