A former employee at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and his brother 
were arrested Friday on suspicion of obtaining loans using stolen 
identities.

Curtis L. Wiltshire, 34, previously worked as an IT analyst at the bank 
and had access to sensitive employee information, including names, 
birthdates, Social Security numbers and photographs, FBI officials said.

Investigators said they found a thumb drive attached to his computer in

identities. They also found a fake drivers license with the photo of a 
bank employee who wasn't the person identified in the license.
