Three men tied up employees and robbed an RBC Bank in Fayetteville on Friday morning, police said.

Authorities are looking for the suspects who entered the bank in the 100 block of Beckett Lane around 10:15 a.m. One of them fired a shot into the ceiling before they tied up three of the four bank employees and got away with an undisclosed amount of money, police spokesman Steve Crawshaw said.

No employees were injured and no customers were in the bank at the time, he said.

The men exited the bank and fled in a blue SUV of unknown make and model driven by a fourth person, Crawshaw said.

Fayetteville police are working with the FBI on the case.
