SALT LAKE CITY — Lead bartender Natalie Jankowski showed up to picket outside the SunTrapp Friday night when she noticed something strange.

“We noticed that the open sign was off. We noticed that the door was locked and there was a zip tie around the handle,” she said.

Marketing and events director Yara Al-badri was next door when people started asking questions.

“They were like, 'Hey, is the SunTrapp closed? Is the SunTrapp closed? Like, did you see the tarp?' And I'm like, 'No, SunTrapp is not closed. I don't know what you're talking about,'" she said. "Someone approached me with the post on their Instagram, and that was shocking. I mean, I did get emotional, and it's just, it's deeply disappointing."
