SUGAR HOUSE -- Police are looking for two men who robbed the US Bank at 2243 E. 2100 South in Sugar House Friday afternoon.
Salt Lake City police say the two men entered from the back of the bank just before 5 p.m. They were wearing black clothing and ski masks and demanded money from a teller.
During the robbery, they jumped over the counter and pushed the teller out of the way. She was slightly injured but is expected to be OK.
A customer who ran outside when the men entered the bank called police from her cell phone. By the time officers arrived, the bank robbers were gone.
Witnesses say the suspects fled in a four-door, maroon Buick Park Avenue. The vehicle's license plate number is 753 YKZ. Police believe the car is a 1989 model that was stolen out of Taylorsville.
Detectives say this was the third bank robbery in their jurisdiction Friday. They're not yet sure if the cases are connected.
If you have any information on the men or have seen their vehicle, contact the Salt Lake Police Department at 801-799-3000.
