By The Herald Staff

Ottawa police and sheriff’s deputies are continuing to investigate a report of a gunman near Ottawa City Hall, 101 S. Hickory St., around 9:30 a.m. today. However, it appears the man did not actually enter the building, and likely did not violate any laws.

Police Chief Dennis Butler said officers continue to search for a man seen carrying a rifle or some type of long gun around downtown Ottawa. At least three people reported seeing the man, who at one point walked across the parking lot at City Hall.
