A would-be robber was arrested after he tried to hold up his local town hall, mistaking it for a bank, Austrian police said Wednesday.
Wearing a mask and waving a toy pistol, the unemployed man burst into the town hall in the village of Poggersdorf, southern Austria, and shouted: "Hold-up, hold-up!"
The building has a sign signaling there is a cash point on the outside wall, police said.
He realized his mistake when an employee explained to him where he was, police said in a statement, adding he fled to a nearby wood.
The 34-year-old man was arrested when he came back later to pick up his motorbike which he had parked outside the town hall.
