He is charged with robbery, while she is in the Ada County Jail charged with aiding and abetting robbery.  Both crimes are felonies.

Police say on the night of Oct. 20, 2007, a man and woman walked into a laundromat off Overland Road, strong armed the clerk into a back room, then stole money from the business .

Composite sketches of the suspects were released a few days later and tips from the public led to the arrests.

Forensic and other evidence helped detectives positively identify and locate the suspects. 

Bridgette Hagadorn-Curtright was booked into the Ada County Jail on Thursday. 

Nicolas Curtright is currently serving time on a probation violation in Beaver County, Utah. Upon his release from Utah, slated for May 13, Utah officials will serve the Boise arrest warrant and Curtright will be brought back to Ada County to face the robbery charge.
