Two of six defendants charged with terrorizing visitors to Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area last August pleaded guilty to charges yesterday.

Travis Erzar and Casey Fenske, both of Ely, Minnesota, each pleaded guilty to one count of felony aiding and abetting terroristic threats in connection with the night-time incident on Basswood Lake, according to THIS Minneapolis Star Tribune story.

Fenske will serve nine months in jail for his actions and serve three years of probation during which time he is banned from entering the BWCA. Enzar will serve three years of probation and will also be barred from the BWCA.

As part of the pleas, Enzar and Fenske have agreed to testify against the remaining four defendants in the case.
