Alleged Utah serial bank robber charged with six federal felonies
SALT LAKE CITY () — A 57-year-old Utah man prosecutors are calling an alleged serial bank robber will now face six felony charges in a federal court.
Dennis L. Dyches of Salt Lake County allegedly robbed multiple credit unions throughout the greater Salt Lake City area – including robbing one of the credit unions twice – between October 2024 and February 2025.
Dyches is accused of going into the credit unions and handing the tellers a note, telling them 'This is a robbery.' The notes allegedly demanded the tellers to give him all the money in their drawer and instructed them to not talk to anyone or hit the alarm. The credit unions ranged from stand-alone buildings to branches located in grocery stores.

According to Acting U.S. Attorney of the District of Utah Felice John Viti, Dyches was finally caught after a surveillance video showed him walking into an underground parking lot after an alleged robbery and leaving in a black Jeep Cherokee.
Investigators reportedly tracked the Jeep to one of Dyches' family members. Prosecutors say clothing and accessories matching the descriptions of the suspected robber were found in the Jeep.
Dyches was safely taken into custody without any further incident and was later indicted by a federal grand jury. He will make his initial appearance before a U.S. Magistrate Judge at 1 p.m. on Thursday, March 13.
