Two fishermen who were kicked out of a Lake Erie walleye tournament late last month and ignited a cheating scandal have been charged with felonies.

Jacob Runyan and Chase Cominski were indicted in Cleveland on felony charges of cheating, attempted grand theft and possessing criminal tools and misdemeanor charges of unlawfully owning wild animals. The two are scheduled to be arraigned Oct. 26.
 

Neither Runyan, 42, of Broadview Heights, Ohio, nor Cominski, 35, of Hermitage, Pennsylvania, commented on the charges.
"I take all crime very seriously, and I believe what these two individuals attempted to do was not only dishonorable but also criminal," Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley said in a statement.
