Bank Robbery Suspect Arrested in Fort Collins
On Tuesday, May 27, 2025, at approximately 2:03 p.m., Fort Collins Police Services (FCPS) responded to ENT Credit Union at 1107 West Drake Road to the report of an armed bank robbery. Staff reported a masked male armed with a firearm had robbed several employees at the bank for an undisclosed amount of cash, then fled on foot.
Numerous officers responded to the area and contacted a male near the bank who matched the general description of the suspect. Police took him, identified as Isaac Meraz (dob: 02/26/2004), into custody and booked him at the Larimer County Jail for the following charges:
- Class 4 Felony - Menacing (3 counts)
- Class 3 Felony – Aggravated Robbery
- Class 4 Felony – Theft Over $20k
Detectives from the Criminal Investigations Division later served a search warrant at a residence in the 1200 block of City Park Avenue and ultimately recovered key evidentiary items. FCPS and the FBI are working jointly on this investigation.
During this incident, Rocky Mountain High School was placed on secured status for approximately 15 minutes due to the proximity of police activity. ENT Credit Union closed for approximately three hours during the investigation.
“As we remain committed to keeping our neighborhoods safe, we want to assure the public that swift action was taken following this armed bank robbery. The suspect was apprehended without further incident, and no injuries were reported. We thank the community and the witnesses for their vigilance and we encourage everyone to remain aware of their surroundings and report suspicious activity,” said Assistant Chief Frank Barrett, who oversees FCPS Criminal Investigations Division.
Anyone with information who has not already spoken to police is asked to contact Detective Al Wilson at (970) 416-2923.
Charges are merely an accusation by law enforcement and all suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
