Police say a third person has been connected to two of three robberies at the Lindon branch of Wells Fargo Bank.

The 22-year-old man was involved in the first and second robberies of the bank, police said, serving as the driver on Nov. 10 and the gunman on Nov. 20.

The man was in the Utah County Jail on unrelated charges at the time of the third robbery on Saturday, when police allege Joshua and Kylee Rich robbed the bank a third time. FBI investigators have accused Joshua Rich of robbing the bank, then switching cars with Kylee, who was arrested after being pulled over on I-15 while driving a car matching the description of the one used in the robbery. Joshua Rich was arrested in Pleasant Grove on Sunday. Charges were filed against the couple on Monday.

FBI agents have confirmed they were questioning another man possibly involved in the robberies who was already in jail on unrelated offenses.
