Police: Robber's target bank moved
NICHOLASVILLE, Ky. (UPI) -- Police in Kentucky said an attempted armed robber left a former bank without any loot after finding the facility had been converted to a water district office.
Nicholasville police spokesman Scott Harvey said the suspect entered the Jessamine South Elkhorn Water District office, which used to be a Farmer's Bank, at about 1 p.m. Tuesday and brandished a revolver, The Lexington (K.Y.) Herald-Leader reported.
Harvey said the suspect "left with nothing" after employees explained to him that the bank had left the building. No one was injured in the incident, police said.
Diana Clark, office manager for the water district, which moved into the building Dec. 15, said the attempted robber was not the first to make the mistake.
"We've had people come in here asking to cash a check," Clark said.
