Police said all four suspects in a videotaped attack on a homeless man are now in police custody.

On Tuesday, the Broward Sheriff's Office announced the arrests of Brandon Edwards and William Sleight, both 19, in the July 2008 attack.

Police were searching for two other suspects. Nicholas Bakum, 19, of Lighthouse Point, turned himself in to police on Wednesday morning. An anonymous tip led investigators to identify 21-year-old Bradley Wunderlich, of Parkland, who was in jail on unrelated charges, as the fourth suspect.

All four suspects will face charges of kidnapping and battery, according to BSO.

The charges stem from two videos posted online called "Beating Up A Crackhead," parts one and two, which detectives came across during the investigation of another crime.

In the video, three teens can be seen knocking down the homeless man, whom police identified as 54-year-old James Cunningham. Police said the teens taunted Cunningham as they hit him, grabbed him and carried him down a street.

BSO said Cunningham was not injured in the attack and did not report it to police.
