Four hostages and heavily armed police SWAT teams spent several hours Friday waiting out two holdup men who police later discovered had fled, authorities said.

The hostages spent 3 1/2 hours inside a closet believing the holdup men were still in the Third National Bank, then dashed from the building in a bid for freedom, police said. No one was hurt.
