KEARNEY, Neb. — Police snipers perched on the roofs in downtown Kearney this morning as authorities worked to resolve a hostage situation at the Wells Fargo Bank.
An armed man held a shotgun on a woman inside the bank at 21 W. 21st St., authorities said.
The hostage situation began about 10:57 a.m., and at about 11:15, some employees and customers at the bank were evacuated through an east door into the alley.
About 30 to 40 people were evacuated, and police officers accompanied them to make sure the suspect was not among them.

Bring in the Sharp Shooter and put one through this thug’s forehead.
Dog Day Afternoon.
This is a wild guess—but I’m betting that this bank is another one of those very effective “Gun Free Zones”
So, if this bank robber goes to jail, does he get counted among the unemployed?
If acquitted, is that a “job saved”?
Kearney is a nice town with a very good regional medical center. Prayers this ends without murder.
no ,but you can be sure he’ll be counted in the census....twice
That's how these crimes should end. It would cut down on the attempts.
And he won’t let them go until Ben Nelson returns the taxpayer money he received in a bribe for his vote.
and brings him a pizza
..it’s over, he’s under arrest
UPDATE
KEARNEY, Neb. (KPTM) - A hostage situation in downtown Kearney has ended peacefully. The Kearney Hub is reporting the gunman surrended shortly before 1:30 Wednesday afternoon.
The newspaper reports the unidentified gunman, armed with a shotgun, entered the bank shortly after 11am.
Agreed. I hope it turns out better than the bank robbery in Norfolk.
