Boise Police arrested two people after an armed robbery on Thursday afternoon.
A man “brandished a handgun during the robbery,” police previously said. Police then said the man fled the scene on a motorcycle with someone else, according to previous Statesman reporting.
“Shortly before the robbery took place, Boise Police responded to a false 911 call reporting an active shooter at a business on the 10400 block of W. Fairview Ave,” Boise Police said in a news release.
Law enforcement identified the caller, who they said allegedly knew the bank robbers and “was an accomplice.” She was arrested on suspicion of robbery (conspiracy) and resisting or obstructing officers, according to the news release. Her charges do not yet appear on Idaho’s online court portal.
