Two Floridians have been arrested by Boise Police officers after being accused of using fraudulent credit cards to make illegal purchases at several Boise stores on Wednesday, June 29th.

Henry M. Saintil, 29, of Pembroke Pines, Florida has been charged with possession of a fraudulent financial transaction card.

Branden W. Coombs, 25, of Miami Gardens, Florida has also been charged with possession of a fraudulent of a financial transaction card.
