The Associated Press is reporting law enforcement believe a man accused of robbing the Fairview Ave. branch of the Bank of Greene County may be linked to other holdups in the Hudson Valley. Jonathan Mills, 24, of Rochester was arrested in a Westchester County motel, Wed., Apr. 11, and subsequently charged with robbery and grand larceny in connection with the Greenport incident, which occurred Mon., Apr 9. He is currently held in Columbia County Jail without bail. Mills was taken into custody one day following the arrest of two other men from Rochester and an Albany woman. All three were charged in connection with a bank robbery in Saugerties. Columbia County Sheriff David Harrison told the AP the two holdups have not been linked, but the investigation is ongoing.
