Got the gun? Check. Ready to do this? Check. In the bank? Um. No. Per the Lexington Herald-Leader:
Police in Nicholasville say a man showed a gun and tried to rob a bank, but he wasn’t in one.
The Jessamine South Elkhorn Water District has offices in what was formerly a branch of Farmers Bank.
City police spokesman Scott Harvey told the Lexington Herald-Leader a man came into the building Tuesday, showed a pistol and demanded money.
When an employee told the man the office really didn’t have any money, the confused would-be robber replied, “I know you have money. It’s a bank.”
He was told it was no longer a bank and he left with nothing.
If they catch the dude, just imagine the ribbing he’ll get in jail …
