SKOWHEGAN — Authorities have arrested two men they say were responsible for an armed robbery at a Skowhegan credit union more than two years ago.

Police say 33-year-old Forrest Goodwin Jr. of Fairfield was arrested Monday on a charge of armed bank robbery.

An inmate serving time on unrelated charges at a Wiscasset jail, 26-year-old Paul Garland of Oakland, was arrested on the same charge Wednesday.

Police tell the Morning Sentinel the men are responsible for the robbery at the Taconnet Federal Credit Union on June 10, 2009. A man wielding a knife robbed the credit union, then escaped on a motorcycle driven by someone else.

No one was hurt.

The suspects will face the charges in federal court in January.
