Salt Lake City police were searching Saturday for two suspects in a downtown shooting that left one man dead.
The victim, whose name has not been disclosed, was shot about 4:30 p.m. Friday in the area of 563 W. 200 South after crossing at the mid-block TRAX crosswalk.
Police say a passenger in a Mazda that had pulled alongside the walkway got out of the vehicle and began talking to the victim. The passenger pulled out a handgun a few moments later and fatally shot the man, then got back in the car and the driver headed east on 200 South, according to police.
The Mazda is described as gold with Utah Arches license plates and handicap placard hanging on the rear view mirror.
The suspects are two males. One is described as Latino, 30 to 35 years old, 220 pounds and 5 feet 7 inches tall. He has dark hair and was wearing white shoes, dark pants and a dark blue jacket with a gray hood.
The other is described as male, unknown race, 30 to 35 years old, slender and 5 feet 6 inches tall. He was wearing light tan boots, camouflage pants, a maroon hooded sweatshirt with white strings and some type of white design on the front and a light colored baseball cap.
