BOUNTIFUL, Utah (AP) - Police have released names of an armed man who died and a suspect who is sought in a botched pawn shop robbery last week in Utah.

Bountiful police say 40-year-old Kleydys Arbolaez-Hernandez was armed when he was shot and killed by a store employee who retrieved a gun and began shooting after he was confronted while opening May 4.

Police did not identify the employee or say how many shots were fired.



Police say 30-year-old Alexyanis Cutino Jimenez was wearing a mask, hooded sweatshirt and jeans when he fled in a white SUV that had been parked nearby.

They say he also is sought on an armed robbery charge in Oklahoma.

Bountiful police say Arbolaez-Hernandez and Jimenez were seen May 1 in the Denver area before Salt Lake City.
