The men, whose ages ranged frm 20 to 28, reportedly were arrested last night while attempting to switch keypads at a store in Coventry, Rhode Island. They are charged with conspiracy, computer theft and fraud. They were scheduled to be arraigned this afternoon in Kent County District Court in Rhode Island.
