No one was injured in the robbery, authorities said.

The would-be robber is described as a black man, standing about 5-foot-10, in his late 40s to late 50s, with a heavy build, the FBI said. He was wearing a black and white hat, a white short-sleeved button-down shirt, a white undershirt and silver glasses.
