A would-be armed robber left a casino empty handed this weekend, after being told there was nothing there to steal.
Deputies say the man walked into the Little Creek Casino in Shelton, brandishing a handgun and demanding cash, around 11:30 Saturday morning.
An employee told him there was no money in the till.
So he ran off on foot.
Investigators say he was last seen running toward U.S. 101, then onto an overpass above the highway.
Deputies and a K-9 unit couldn’t find him.
But the casino’s cameras got a pretty good look.
It’s believed the suspect is between 20 and 30 years old, about 5′ 7″, with a small build.

He was wearing a gray or dark flannel buttoned-up shirt that was buttoned to the neck, dark gray pants, dark “Romeo-style” slip-on work boots, a light gray hat with a white Nike logo and sunglasses.
Authorities say he was also seen wearing a clear, plastic glove on his right hand and was wearing sunglasses.
If you think you recognize him, contact detectives at the Mason County Sheriff’s Office.
