Some bingo players in Waterloo got a scare last night. Police say a man walked into a bingo hall on the National Cattle Congress fairgrounds, armed with a handgun. He went to an office, pointed the weapon at a manager, and demanded money.

Police say several people were gathered inside the building, playing bingo at the time of the hold-up. No injuries were reported. Police say the suspect took an undisclosed amount of cash and drove away from the building in a black S-U-V.

Authorities are looking for the man. The robbery remains under investigation.
