Twenty-one-year-old transient Adrian Montelongo and 22-year-old Jose Santos of Bellingham were taken into police custody on Wednesday on attempted murder charges.
The pair is suspected of the non-fatal shooting of a 20-year-old man at the Golden Nut Company in December 2011.
Investigators found that the suspects retaliated against the victim for his involvement in a previous gang-related shooting in Bellingham.
Whatcom County Undersheriff Jeff Parks says that Steve Ibarra, another suspect in the case, is still under investigation.
Ibarra recently received a 46 month sentence for another shooting in Bellingham last April.
Authorities say all people involved in the incident are either gang members or associates.
