Salt Lake City police are looking for suspects in two separate bar incidents where patrons went outside and fired handguns into the air.

The first incident occurred about 10:45 p.m. Friday outside the Trails Club at 921 S. 300 West. A man had been ejected from the club and out in the parking lot he fired several rounds into the air before speeding away in a vehicle. No one was hurt.

Police said they know the identity of the gunman and expected to screen charges with city prosecutors.

About 2 a.m. Saturday, another man fired multiple times outside the Club One bar at 200 W. 400 South after he got into a fight with several other men inside.

No one was hurt in that incident, either, but a vehicle in the parking lot was struck by one of the bullets.

That suspect had not been identified, but was described as a male Asian adult who fled in a white pickup truck or possibly an SUV with a ski rack on top.

Anyone with information on these incidents is asked to call police at 801-799-3000.
