Legal Question in Criminal Law in Colorado

Please, my brother has an open case in state of CO for identity theft. He opened an bank account and he was using it for 7 yr even with cr card, without taking any loans or mortgages, basically it was only for personal use without intention for misuse at all. Anyway, he moved to state of IL to take a time and find best solution to deal with this issue. Q1 : If he would get stop by state patrol or local police in traffic, would they be able to find out that he has open case in different state and arrest him? Q2: he still has $$ in that bank. Would be safe to go to the bank and close the account? Thank you for your time

2) Only if he wants to help law enforcement prove the case against him. They most likely flagged the account by now. When he shows up to collect, he provides law enfocement proof of both identities.
