Wilder credited his officers and detectives as well as informed citizens in the arrest of the two men.

“I give a lot of credit to the officers on the street and the citizens who gave us information or tidbits of information,” he said. “And Detective (Randy) Manse really put this thing together. He pursued a lot of different leads. … He was a really good investigator on this.”
