SOUTH SALT LAKE, Utah, Sept. 12, 2016 (Gephardt Daily) — Police are searching for three suspects who robbed a Maverik convenience store at gunpoint Monday morning.

The men targeted the Maverik at 514 W. 3900 South, at approximately 10:55 a.m., said Sgt. Gary Keller, South Salt Lake Police, in a news release.

An employee told police that three men in their early 20s walked into the store, looked around for a short time, then approached the counter, brandished a silver handgun and demanded cash.

The store employee handed over an undisclosed amount of cash.

The three suspects ran out of the store to a small, red passenger car that was parked in the neighborhood directly behind the Maverik, Keller said.

All three suspects were described as black, the first wearing black pants and a black Nike hoodie, the second wearing khaki pants and a royal blue Nike hoodie and the third wearing dark shorts and a long-sleeved blue plaid shirt.

No one was injured during the robbery.

Police are asking anyone with information on this robbery to call the SSL Police Department at 801-412-3609.
