Alleged Cape Cod Bank Robber Denied Bail

A man accused of robbing a Cape Cod bank is being denied bail.

A judge has ruled Petar Petyoshin of Edgartown is too dangerous to be granted a release.

Petyoshin, an employee of the Oak Bluffs Water District, allegedly robbed the Rockland Trust Bank on Route 28 in Falmouth on April 8th while brandishing a gun and claiming to have a bomb.

Police say he also zip-tied bank patrons and employees before escaping with a stolen car. A probable cause hearing is scheduled for June 28th in Falmouth District Court.
