SALT LAKE CITY — Police are looking for three men who tied up a restaurant employee and robbed his store Thursday afternoon.

The robbery happened just before 2 p.m. at the Panaderia Bonita, located at 165 E. 900 South.

There was only one employee in the store at the time, and he told police the robbers threatened him with a gun and tied him up before taking off with an undisclosed amount of cash.

"Our victim in the store went out the back door of the store while he was still tied up and started kicking on the door of the business next door," said Salt Lake City Police Lt. J.R. Nelson.

Employees at the neighboring business untied the man and called police.

Right now, investigators don't have any leads. If you have information you believe would be helpful, contact the Salt Lake City Police Department at 801-799-3000.
