A man from Martha's Vineyard has been charged again in connection to a bank robbery in Falmouth, Massachusetts, this April.
Federal prosecutors say the man, 40-year-old Petar Petyoshin, of Edgartown, zip-tied people at the Rockland Trust Bank in Falmouth, brandished a gun, placed what he said was a bomb on the counter and stole a vehicle from a bank customer.

Authorities say there is surveillance footage of a man matching Petyoshin's description in a gray van in a nearby parking lot 30 minutes prior to the robbery. The individual can be seen returning to the area 15 minutes after the robbery.
The owner of the van was identified as Petyoshin and he was located as being in the area of the bank at the time of the robbery, according to court documents.

He was arrested on a related charge this past May.
He is scheduled to appear in federal court at a later date.
