A gunman walked into the South Elkhorn Water District Building this afternoon and tried to rob it, mistaking it for a bank. 

The man showed clerks his revolver handgun and demanded cash.  When the clerks said they didn’t have any money, the man mentioned that the building was a bank.  The clerks then informed him that the building was no longer a bank.

The man looked around the building for a bit before running away.  No one was hurt in the attempted robbery.

The South Elkhorn Water District moved into the building that was formally occupied by Farmer's Bank on the corner of South Main Street and Edgewood Drive.  Police say the man mistakenly thought it was still Farmer's Bank.
