Fake Bomb Heist in South Salt Lake | Salt Lake City News

Three suspects pulled off a brazen bank heist in South Salt Lake using a fake bomb threat, leading to arrests and serious charges—including terrorism and aggravated robbery. The teller handed over $1,234 after being threatened with an explosive device, while the getaway driver, Brelyn Capri Sanchez, was caught at an apartment. Fidel Ybarra allegedly entered the bank and confessed to the scheme, admitting the bomb was fake. The alleged mastermind, Thomas Domingo Bustos, coordinated the operation and is accused of pocketing stolen cash before splitting profits. All three face top-tier felony charges, with police noting Bustos’ “clear disdain for public safety.” No other suspects are currently known, but investigators remain open to new leads.
