BOISE, Idaho (KBOI) -- Two bank robbery suspects were arrested in Boise Friday afternoon.

The first suspect was wanted for a bank robbery in Fort Collins, Colo. Officers say police from Fort Collins told BPD that Edward McGrath, 57, could be in Boise.

McGrath was located at a motel and arrested on fugitive to Idaho charges connected to a warrant for a bank robbery, according to police reports.

The second arrest was for another robbery, unrelated to the first arrest.

Kent G. Williams, 47, was arrest for a Boise bank robbery that occurred in April.

Officers say his vehicle, a teal-colored, older model sedan, matched the description connected to the robbery.

Williams was charged with robbery and unlawful possession of a firearm and then taken into the Ada County Jail. Detectives are continuing to investigate the April robbery and other recent bank robberies, so BPD says additional charges are possible.
