Sag Harbor Village police now say that a third person was likely working in tandem with the man and woman who robbed Corner Closet last month, and they have released a sketch of the suspect in hopes the public can identify him.

The robbery occurred at 5:50 p.m., and police now say that at 5:30 p.m. the third man had entered a Main Street jewelry store, Illusions, and said things that were identical to what was said to the Corner Closet owner, police said.
