(Virginia, MN)  --  Two suspects are charged with attempted murder and assault after a man was found badly burned and naked on a street in Virginia.  Twenty-one-year-old Forrest King had burns over half his body and was taken to a Duluth burn unit Monday in critical condition.  The criminal complaint says 38-year-old Cory TwoCrow had been fighting with King before he and 28-year-old Vince Hanson poured gasoline on King and set him on fire.  TwoCrow had burns on his arms and hands when he was arrested.  Police recovered the gas can used in the assault in the woods where Hanson allegedly hid it. First-degree attempted murder carries a life sentence.
